Question

Two points (a,0) and (0, b) are joined by a straight line.
Another point on this line is​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1/2a, 1/2b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

1. First point lie on x axis, having '0' distance on y axis and 'a' distance on x axis.
2. Second point lie on y axis, have '0' distance on x axis and 'b' distance on Y axis.
3. So, there will be 3rd point between these two points having coordinates 1/2a, and 1/2b, means 1/2a distance along X axis and 1/2b distance along Y axis.

I hope, it will help you.
