Step-by-step explanation:
Given coordinates are(x1,y1)=(4,−1)
and (x2,y2)=(−2,−3)
Means of trisection:- A line segment in three equal parts then ratio is 1:2 and 2:1 internally.
Case (1) If m1:m2=1:2
Then, using formula
(x,y)=(m1+m2m1x2+m2x1,m1+m2m1y2+m2y1)
(x,y)=(1+21×(−2)+2×4,1+21×(−3)+2×(−1))
(x,y)=(
hope it works man..
