Question

find the point which divides the line segment joining
(4, 5), (-3, 4) in the ratio -6:5​

Answer 1

Answer:

By section formula coordinate of required point is P(

l+m

lx

z

+mx

1

,

m+m

ly

z

+my

1

).

Substituting the points (−3,5) and (4,−9) in formula:

P(

1+6

24−3

,

1+6

30−9

)=P(3,3)
