Question 2:

Find the coordinates of the points of trisection of the line segment joining (4, − 1) and (− 2, − 3).

Answer:

Let P (x₁, y₁) and Q (x₂, y₂) are the points of trisection of the line segment joining the given points i.e., AP = PQ = QB

Therefore, point P divides AB internally in the ratio 1:2.

Point Q divides AB internally in the ratio 2:1.
