Question

A point T on a segment with endpoints D (1, 4) and F (7, 1) partitions the segment in a 2:1 ratio. Find T

Answer 1

use section formula

Answer 2

the endpoints joining (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are divided internally in the ratio of m:n
then the cordinate of the point is given by (m x2 + n x1)/(m+n) , (m y2 + n y1)/(m+n)

Answer 3

here m=2 and n=1 ..
