1. The values of p and q are: p=31 and q= 4
2. B(11, 29/5)
Further explanation:
<u>1. L(15. 1) is the midpoint of the straight line joining point (p. - 2) to point D(-1. q) find p and q.</u>
Given:
M = (15. 1)
(x1, y1) = (p, -2)
(x2, y2) = (-1, q)
The formula for mid-point is:
Hence,
p=31
q=4
<u>2. M is the midpoint of the straight line joining point A (3. 1/5) to point B.If m has coordinates (7. 3), find the coordinates of B.</u>
Here,
(x1,y1) = (3, 1/5)
(x2, y2) = ?
M(x,y) = (7,3)
Putting values in the formula of mid-point
So, the coordinates of point B are (11, 29/5) .
