A line intersects the y- axis and x-axis at the points P and Q respectively. If (5,-6) is the midpoint of PQ, then the coordinates of P and Q are :

$\huge{\boxed{\boxed{\red{\ulcorner{\mid{ \overline{\underline{\bf{SoLuTiOn}}}}}\mid}}}}$

Line Cuts x-axis and y-axis

Intercepts are : P( x, 0); Q( 0, y)

Applying mid-point theorem on both points,

-> (x/2) = 2 ; (y/2) = -5 => x = 4 y = -10

Hence, the two points are : P( 4,0) and Q(0, -10 )
