219. 26. If C is a point lying on the line segment AB joining A(1, 1) and B(2, - 3) seen that 3AC = CB, then find the co-ordinates of C.


We have,

           3AC = CB

rightwards double arrow space space AC over CB equals 1 third


We have,           3AC = CBNow, coordinates of C are
Here, we h

Now, coordinates of C are


straight C space open square brackets fraction numerator straight m subscript 1 straight x subscript 2 plus straight m subscript 2 straight x subscript 1 over denominator straight m subscript 1 plus straight m subscript 2 end fraction comma space fraction numerator straight m subscript 1 straight y subscript 2 plus straight m subscript 2 straight y subscript 1 over denominator straight m subscript 1 plus straight m subscript 2 end fraction close square brackets

Here, we have x1 = 1,    y1 = 1;
x2 = 2,    y2 = -3
and    m1 = 1, m2 = 3
Hence,
