Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 10 Chapter 13 Section and Mid-Point Formula For any two given points in a Cartesian plane, the knowledge of co-ordinate geometry is essential to find: (i) the distance between the given points, (ii) the co-ordinates of a point which divides the line joining the given points in a given ratio and (iii) the co-ordinates of the mid-point of the line segment joining the two given points. Students in this chapter will solve problems on the section formula, points of trisection, mid-point formula and centroid of a triangle.

Exercise 13(A) 1. Calculate the co-ordinates of the point P which divides the line segment joining: (i) A (1, 3) and B (5, 9) in the ratio 1: 2. (ii) A (-4, 6) and B (3, -5) in the ratio 3: 2. Solution (i) Let’s assume the co-ordinates of the point P be (x, y) Then by section formula, we have P(x, y) = (m 1x 2+ m 2x 1)/ (m 1+ m 2), (m 1y 2+ m 2y 1)/ (m 1+ m 2) Hence, the co-ordinates of point P are (1/5, -3/5). 2. In what ratio is the line joining (2, -3) and (5, 6) divided by the x-axis. Solution Let’s assume the joining points as A(2, -3) and B(5, 6) be divided by point P(x ,0) in the ratio k: 1. Then we have, y = ky 2+ y 1/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = 6k + (-3)/(k + 1) ⇒ 0 = 6k – 3 ⇒ k = ½ Hence, the required ratio is 1: 2. 3. In what ratio is the line joining (2, -4) and (-3, 6) divided by the y-axis. Solution Let’s assume the line joining points A(2, -4) and B(-3, 6) be divided by point P (0, y) in the ratio k: 1. Then we have, x = kx 2+ x 1/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = k(-3) + (1×2)/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = -3k + 2 ⇒ k = 2/3 Hence, the required ratio is 2: 3. 4. In what ratio does the point (1, a) divided the join of (-1, 4) and (4, -1)? Also, find the value of a. Solution Let’s assume the point P (1, a) divide the line segment AB in the ratio k: 1. Then by section formula, we have 1 = (4k – 1)/ (k + 1), ⇒ k + 1 = 4k – 1 ⇒ 2 = 3k ⇒ k = 2/3 ….. (1) And, a = (-k + 4)/ (k + 1) ⇒ a = (-(2/3) + 4)/(2/3 + 1) [using (1)] ⇒ a = 10/5 = 2 Thus, the required ratio is 2: 3 and a = 2. 5. In what ratio does the point ...

In what ratio is the line joining (2, -3) and (5, 6) divided by the x-axis. Solution Let’s assume the joining points as A(2, -3) and B(5, 6) be divided by point P(x ,0) in the ratio k: 1. Then we have, y = ky 2+ y 1/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = 6k + (-3)/(k + 1) ⇒ 0 = 6k – 3 ⇒ k = ½ Hence, the required ratio is 1: 2. 3. In what ratio is the line joining (2, -4) and (-3, 6) divided by the y-axis. Solution Let’s assume the line joining points A(2, -4) and B(-3, 6) be divided by point P (0, y) in the ratio k: 1. Then we have, x = kx 2+ x 1/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = k(-3) + (1×2)/ (k + 1) ⇒ 0 = -3k + 2 ⇒ k = 2/3 Hence, the required ratio is 2: 3. 4.
