Question

Find the coordinates of the points of trisection of the line segment joining ( -4, 5 ) and ( 3 ,-2 ) ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) let us assume, A= -4 , B= 5

therefore, d(A,B) = ?

therefore, 5 is greater than -4

therefore, d(A,B)= 5-(-4) = 5+4= 9units

2) let us assume, D= 3 , E= -2

therefore, d(DE)= ?

therefore,3 is greater than -2

therefore,d(DE)= 3-(-2) = 3+2 = 5units
