(i) In what ratio does the point (5, 4) divide the line segment joining the points (2, 1) and (7 ,6)?
(ii) In what ratio does the point (-4, b) divide the line segment joining the points P (2, -2), Q (-14, 6)? Hence find the value of b.
Solution:
The line segment joining A (2, 3) and B (6, -5) is intercepted by the x-axis at the point K. Write the ordinate of the point k. Hence, find the ratio in which K divides AB. Also, find the coordinates of the point K.
