Question

11. To divide a line segment PQ in the ratio 5 : 7, first a ray PX is drawn so that angle QPX is an
acute angle and then at equal distances points are marked on the ray PX and the last point
is joined to Q. Write the minimum number of these equal distances points on ray PX.
Please answer correctly :).​

Answer 1

First draw the line segment PQ .

Then draw a ray PX so that angle QPX will be an acute angle .

Divide ray PX and join last to Q .

So if you count the minimum number of these points will be 7 .
