Question

if the line segment joining the points p and q(5,-2) is bisected at origin find the coordinates of p.

Answer 1

Thus so

THE LINE SEGMENT P Q IS BISECTED AG THE ORIGIN

➡ ( 0 , 0 ) IS THE MID POINT OF THE LINE SEGMENT

. ➡ LET THE POINT P BE ( x , y )

THEN BY MID POINT FORMULA

. X + 5 / 2 , Y - 2 / 2 = 0 , 0

. X + 5 = 0 , Y - 2 = 0

. X = -5 , Y = 2

THUS THE POINT P IS ( -5 . 2 )
