Find the coordinate of a point P which divides the line segment joining :
M( -4, -5) and N (3, 2) in the ratio 2 : 5.
उत्तर
Let the point P divides the line segment MN in the ratio2: 5.
cooordinates of P are
x = `(2 xx 3 + 5 xx -4)/(2 + 5) = -14 / 7 = -2`
y = `(2 xx 2 + 5 xx -5)/(2 + 5) = -3`

Read the following passage:
Jagdish has a field which is in the shape of a right angled triangle AQC. He wants to leave a space in the form of a square PQRS inside the field for growing wheat and the remaining for growing vegetables (as shown in the figure). In the field, there is a pole marked as O. |
