Question

Find the point P that partitions line segment AB in the ratio 1:1. A= -5, -2 B= 3,4

Answer 1

The point P(-1, 1) separates segment AB in the ratio 1:1.

Explanation:

To find the partition in 1:1 ratio of A(-5,-2) and B(3,4),

We know,

midpoint of AB (P)= [(-5+3)/2 , (-2+4)/2]

= (-1, 1 )
