Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A point P divides the segment joining A(2, -5) and B(6, 3) externally in the ratio 2:3. What are the coordinates of P?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember that external division alters the sign in the distance part of the section formula.

Question 2

Find the coordinates of points that trisect the line segment from (1, 1) to (9, 9).

πŸ’‘ Hint: Divide the segment into three equal lengths using section formula for each part.
