Question

The points of a line segment AB are A(a,b) and B(b,a), where a and b are positive.In what ratio the line segment AB is divided by axes. With full explanation​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 :  1

Step-by-step explanation:

y-a ÷ x-b = b-a÷a/b = - 1

y-a =  -x+b

y+x = a+b

at x = 0 , y = a+b

at y = 0 , x = a+b

ratios = a+b : a+b = 1 :  1
