Question 4 the day:
July 15, 2003
The question for the day is from the topic of Coordinate geometry.
- Find the coordinates of the point which divides the line joining (5, -2) and (9, 6) internally in the ratio 1 : 3.
| (1) |
(6, 0) |
| |
(2) |
(6, 3) |
| (3) |
(0, 6) |
| |
(4) |
(3, 6) |
Correct Answer - (1)
Solution:
The coordinates of the point which divides the join of (5, -2) and (9, 6) internally in the ratio 1 : 3 are
Thus the coordinates of the required point are (6, 0).
