Question

find the co-ordinate of the point P which divides the join of A(-2,5) and B(3,-5) in the ratio 2:3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Apply the formula:

Coordinates of point P = m1x2 + m2x1/m1 + m2. and m1y2 + m2y1 /m1+m2

= 2×5+3×(-2) / 2+3 and 2×(-5)+3×3 / 2+3

=11/5 and -4/5.

So coordinates of P are 11/5 and -4/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

For this..... There is a formula.....

For x :

m1 x2 + m2 x1 / m1+m2

For y :

m1 y2 + m2 y1 / m1+m2

given :

m1 = 2

m2 = 3

x1 = -2, x2 = 3

y1 = 5, y2 = -5

FOR X :

2×3 + 3×(-2) / 2+3

6+(-6) / 5 = 0

X = 0

FOR Y :

2×(-5) + 3×5 / 2+3

-10 + 10 / 5 = 0

Y = 0

Coordinates of P are.....

P(0,0)
