Question

11. In given figure, if A1,A2,A3 ………….. and B1, B2 ……………… have been marked at equal distances. In what ratio C divides AB​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

C divides AB in the ratio 8:5

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the attached figure

If we draw lines parallel to CB_5CB

5

from points B_4,B_3,B_2B

respectively

Also if we draw lines parallel to CA_8CA

8

from points A_7, A_6,A_5,A_4,A_3,A_2A

respectively

Then we can clearly see that CB contains 5 parts and CA contains 8 parts

Therefore, point C divides AB in the ratio 8:5[/tex]

Hope this answer is helpful.
