The coordinates of the point X that lies along the directed line segment is (2, 4/3)
<h3>How to find the coordinates of the point X that lies along the directed line segment?</h3>
The points are given as:
A = (1, 1)
E = (7, 3)
The location 1/6 of the segment can be represented as;
m : n = 1 : 5
So, we have the coordinates of the point P that lies along the directed line segment to be
X = 1/6 * (mx2 + nx1, my2 + ny1)
So, we have:
X = 1/6 * (1 * 7 + 5 * 1, 1 * 3 + 5 * 1)
Evaluate
X = (2, 4/3)
Hence, the coordinates of the point X that lies along the directed line segment is (2, 4/3)
