Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : (3, 4) Given: (x, y) divides the line segment joining (4, 3) and (2, 5) in the ratio 1 : 1 internally. Formula Used: x = (mx2 + nx1)/(m + n) y = (my2 + ny1)/(m + n) Calculation: x = (mx2 + nx1)/(m + n) ⇒ x = (1 × 2 + 1 × 4)/(1 + 1) ⇒ x = (2 + 4)/2 ⇒ x = 6/2 ⇒ x = 3 y = (my2 + ny1)/(m + n) ⇒ y = (1 × 5 + 1 × 3)/(1 + 1) ⇒ y = (5 + 3)/2 ⇒ y = 8/2 ⇒ y = 4 ∴ The value of (x, y) is (3, 4). |
