Point P divides the line segment joining R (β1, 3) and S (9, 8) in ratio k:1. If P lies on the line x β y + 2 = 0, then value of k is
(a) 2/3Β (b) 1/2 Β (c) 1/3Β Β (d) 1/4
Question 35 Point P divides the line segment joining R (β1, 3) and S (9, 8) in ratio k:1. If P lies on the line x β y + 2 = 0, then value of k is (a) 2/3 (b) 1/2 (c) 1/3 (d) 1/4
Using section formula
x = (ππ ππ + ππ ππ)/(ππ + ππ)
x = (π Γ 9 + 1 Γ (β1))/(π + 1)
x = (ππ β π)/(π + π)
y = (ππ ππ + ππ ππ)/(ππ + ππ)
y = (π Γ 8 + 1 Γ 3)/(π + 1)
y = (ππ + π)/(π + π)
Since point P lies on line
It will satisfy itβs equation
Putting values of x and y in equation
x β y + 2 = 0
(ππ β π)/(π + π)β(ππ + π)/(π + π) + 2 = 0
((9π β1) β (8π + 3))/(π + 1) + 2 = 0
(9π β 1 β 8π β 3)/(π + 1) + 2 = 0
(π β 4)/(π + 1) + 2 = 0
(π β 4 + 2(π + 1))/(π + 1) = 0
(ππ β π)/(π + π) = 0
3k β 2 = 0
3k = 2
k = π/π
So, the correct answer is (a)
