u know about this ? \[( x , y ) = \frac{ mx_{1} + nx_{2} }{ m +n} , \frac{ my_{1} +ny_{2} }{ m +n }\]

OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):

if u want to find the coordinates of a point C ( x , y) where C divides a line with 2 poits A ( x1 , y1) and B (x2 and y2) in the ratio of m: n u can use that

OpenStudy (keana):

no. i have never seen that

OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):

x coordinate of point C \[x = \frac{ mx_{1} + nx_{2} }{ m+n }\] y coordinate of point C \[y = \frac{ my_{1} + ny_{2} }{ m + n}\]

OpenStudy (keana):

oh wow. ok that's confusing

OpenStudy (lucaz):
