Mathematics einen (Chapter) (Coordinate Geometry) (Class 10) Exercise 7.4 Question Determine the ratio in which the line 2x + y - 4 = 0 divides the line segment joining the points A(2, - 2) and BO3,7). € Answer 1: Let the line segment joining the points A(2, - 2) and B(3, 7) is divided by the line 2x + y - 4 = 0 into ration k:1. Using section formula (™22#™"», ™¥4™21), the coordinates of point of intersection = (eee, Oe et ince this point lies on the line 2x +y ~ 4 = 0, so itwill satisfy the equation of line.
