If C is the middle point of AB and P is ...

If C is the middle point of AB and P is any point outside AB, then

A

PA+PB+PC=0

B

PA+PB+2PC=0

C

PA+PB=PC

D

PA+PB=2PC

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Let P be the origin outside of AB and C is mid-point of AB, then

`PC=(PA+PB)/(2)implies 2PC=PA+PB`
