P divides the distance between A (-2, 1) and B (1, 4) in the ratio of 2: 1. Calculate the coordinates of the point P.
Solution:
(i) Find the coordinates of the points of trisection of the line segment joining the point (3, -3) and (6, 9).
(ii) The line segment joining the points (3, -4) and (1, 2) is trisected at the points P and Q. If the coordinates of P and Q are (p, – 2) and 
respectively, find the values of p and q.
