Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
The mid point of P(4,m) and Q(-2,4) is C(n,-1)
To find :-
Find the values of m and n ?
Solution :-
Given points are P(4,m) and Q(-2,4)
Let (x1, y1) = P(4,m) => x1 = 4 and y1 = m
Let (x2, y2) = Q(-2,4) => x2 = -2 and y2 = 4
We know that
The coordinates of the mod point of the linesegment joining the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
is M(x,y) = ( {x1+x2}/2 , {y1+y2}/2 )
Mid point of the linesegment PQ
=>M(x,y) = ( { 4+(-2)}/2 ,{m+4}/2)
=> M(x,y) = {(4-2)/2 , {m+4}/2)
=> M(x,y) = (2/2,{m+4}/2)
=> M(x,y) = (1,{m+4}/2)
According to the given problem
Mid point of PQ = C(n,-1)
=> M(x,y) = C(n,-1)
=>(1,{m+4}/2) = (n,-1)
On Comparing both sides then
=> 1 = n and (m+4)/2 = -1
=> n = 1 and m+4 = -2
=> n = 1 and m = -2-4
=> n = 1 and m = -6
Answer:-
The value of m = -6
The value of n = 1
Used formulae:-
- The coordinates of the mod point of the linesegment joining the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
- is M(x,y) = ( {x1+x2}/2 , {y1+y2}/2 )
