Step-by-step explanation:
Trisection means dividing a line segment in three equal parts or dividing a line segment in the ratio 1:2 and 2:1
Given points: x
1
=3
x 2=−3
y 1 =−2
y 2 =−4
CASE :- 1
m:n=1:2
=( mx 2 +nx 1/m+n , my 2 +ny 1/m+n )
=( 1(−3)+(3)/2+1 ,-4+4/2+1 )
=( 3−3+6 , 3−4−4)
=(−1, −8 /3)
CASE :- 2
m:n=2:1
=(
m+n
mx
2
+nx
1
,
m+n
my
2
+ny

)
=(

2(−3)+1(3)
,
2+1
2(−4)+1(−2)
)
=(
