Consider points A(3, 2, 1) and B(7, 8, 5), a point divides the line segment AB externally in the ratio 4:3. Calculate the coordinates of the dividing point.
💡 Hint: Refer to the section formula that accounts for external division.
Two points P(-5, -2, -3) and Q(5, 3, 7) create a segment divided by a point R in ratio 2:-1. Find the coordinates of point R.
💡 Hint: The formula needs adjusting for negative ratios in external division.
