Question

What is the location of point G which partitions the directed line segment from D to F into a 5:4 ratio

Answer 1

Answer:

X =(5.x2 +4.x1)/(9)   And   Y =(5.y2 +4.y1)/(9)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement of the question, the point G divides the line segment DF in ration 5:4

We use the ratio formula for this purpose.

X =(k1.x2 +k2.x1)/(k1+k2)   And   Y =(k1.y2 +k2.y1)/(k1+k2)

The point G divides a line segment DF with D(x1, y1) and F(x2, y2) in a ratio 5: 4, then the co-ordinates of the point of division will be

X =(5.x2 +4.x1)/(5+4)   And   Y =(5.y2 +4.y1)/(5+4)

X =(5.x2 +4.x1)/(9)   And   Y =(5.y2 +4.y1)/(9)
