प्रश्न

Find the mid-point of the line segment joining the points

(a, b) and (a + 2b, 2a – b)

योग

उत्तर


Mid–point of a line = `((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1 + y_2)/2)`

Mid–point of AB = `(("a" + "a" + 2"b")/2, ("b" + 2"a" - "b")/2)`

= `((2"a" + 2"b")/2, (2"a")/2)`

= `(2(("a" + "b"))/2, "a")`

= (a + b, a)

Find coordinates of the midpoint of a segment joining point A(–1, 1) and point B(5, –7)

Solution: Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)

x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = –7

Using midpoint formula,

∴ Coordinates of midpoint of segment AB 

= `((x_1 + x_2)/2, (y_1+ y_2)/2)`

= `(square/2, square/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = `(4/2, square/2)`

∴ Coordinates of the midpoint = `(2, square)`
