Question

find the condition that the point x, y may lie on the line segment joining A(2,3) and B(-5,-6)

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the point P(x,y) lies on the line joining A(3,4) and B(-5,-6),  

Therefore, points P, A and B are collinear points.

So, area of triangle PAB = 0                                          

Therefore, we have:  

10x-18-3y-5y+20=0

10x-8y+2=0

5x-4y+1=0 , which is the required condition.
