Question

Find the coordinates of points which divide the line segment joining A(-4,0) and B(0,6)
into four equal parts.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using midpoint formula= {x1 + X2 , y1 + y2}

2 2

LET midpoint of AB be P

Then,

P= (-2,3)

LET midpoint of AP be X

Then,

X= (-3,3/2)

LET midpoint of PB be Y

Then,

Y= (-1,9/2)

Hence XPY are the coordinates of points AB.
