The coordinates of point C that forms the triangle is; (2, -1)
<h3>How to partition a line segment?</h3>We are told that point D divides line segment AB in the ratio of 5:3.
The line segment division formula is;
(x, y) = (m₁x₂ + m₂x₁)/(m₁ + m₂), (m₁y₂ + m₂y₁)/(m₁ + m₂)
For this question;
x₁ = 2; y₁ = -6; x₂ = 10; y₂ = 2; m₁ = 5; m₂ = 3
Thus, (x, y) gives us;
(5*10 + 3*2)/(5 + 3), (5*2 + 3*-6)/(5 + 3)
D(x, y) = (7, -1)
Now, we need to find the coordinates of C
We will use coordinate system which means the coordinate of x will be the as x coordinate of A since, AC is vertical line
And coordinate of y will be same as y in D since CD is horizontal line. Thus, coordinate of C is; C(2,-1).
