उत्तर
It is given that P divides the line segment joining the points A(1, 3) and B(4, 6) in the ratio 2 : 1.
Using section formula, we get
Coordinates of P \[= \left( \frac{2 \times 4 + 1 \times 1}{2 + 1}, \frac{2 \times 6 + 1 \times 3}{2 + 1} \right) = \left( \frac{9}{3}, \frac{15}{3} \right) = \left( 3, 5 \right)\]
Thus, the coordinates of P are (3, 5).

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
