Question

if the point c(-1,2) divides internally the line segment joining the points a(2,5) and b(x, y) in the ratio 3:4, find the value of x2 + y²​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x²+y²=29

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attachment for the Solution.

Using formula:-

If P(x,y) divides the line joining of the points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) internally in the ratio m1:m2 then The coordinates of P is

[(m1x2+m2x1)/(m1+m2),(m1y2+m2 y1)/(m1+m2)]
