A line intersect the Y-axis and X-axis at he points P and Q respectively. If (2,-5) is the mid-point of PQ, then find the coordinate of P and Q.

Answer»

SOLUTION :We know that at Y-axis, X-coordinate is zero and at X-axis, y-coordinate is zero.
So, let `""P = (O,y)`
and `"" Q=(x,O)`
Since M (2,- 5) is the mid-point formula,
`(0+x)/(2)=2,(y+0)/(2)=-5`
`IMPLIES""x=4,""y=-10`
`therefore""P-=(0,-10)andQ-=(4,0)`
