NCERT Exercise Exercise 7.2

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

Let P (x1y1) and Q (x2y2) 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.
