1.	If p(a/2,4) is the mid point of the line sefement joining the point A(-6,5) and B(-2,3),find a
Answer» Since P is mid-point of line segment AB, then{tex}\\frac { - 6 + ( - 2 ) } { 2 } = \\frac { a } { 2 }{/tex}{tex}\\Rightarrow \\quad \\frac { - 8 } { 2 } = \\frac { a } { 2 }{/tex}{tex}\\Rightarrow{/tex}\xa0a = - 8
