Question

To divide a line segment PQ in the ratio A:B (a,b are positive integers) draw a ray PX so that angle QPX is an acute angle and then mark point on ray PX at equal distances such that minimum number of these points is :- (1)Greater of A and B (2) A+B (3) A+B-1 (4) A+B+1​

Answer 1

From the figure, we can see that the total number of equidistant points to be drawn on Ray AX is p+q.
