Answered by littleprincez

Step-by-step explanation:

internal division

Also known as the Section Formula for Internal Division. When the line segment is divided internally in the ration m:n, we use this formula. That is when the point C lies somewhere between the points A and B. Understand the concept of Coordinate here.

external division

External division of a line segment have opposite direction. The point R then lies outside the line segment P1P2 (but still on the line joining P1 and P2). In these cases, R is said to divide the line segment P1P2 externally in the ratio m : n. The formula is, as in case of an internal division
