Question

find the coordinates of the point P the dividing the line segment joining the points A(1,3) and B(4,6) in the ratio 2:1​

Answer 1

HEY MATE,

FOR FINDING P WE USE SECTION FORMULA

SO THIS POINT P DIVIDE AB IN 2:1 RATIO SO LET THEM IN M:N.

SECTION FORMULA - [MX2+NX1]/M+N,[MY2+MY1]/M+N.

SO,

X = (2)(4)+(1)(1)/2+1

X= 8+1/3

X= 9/3

X= 3

Y = (2)(6)+(1)(3)/1+2

Y= 12+3/3

Y= 15/3

Y= 5

SO THE COORDINATE OF P = (3,5)

I HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU...
