Find the co-ordinates of the point which divides the join of (5,8,-3) and (1,0,-3) in the radio 3:1.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining the points \( A(5, 8, -3) \) and \( B(1, 0, -3) \) in the ratio \( 3:1 \), we can use the section formula in three dimensions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Points and Ratio**: - Let point \( A \) have coordinates \( (x_1, y_1, z_1) = (5, 8, -3) \). - Let point \( B \) have coordinates \( (x_2, y_2, z_2) = (1, 0, -3) \). - The ratio in which the point \( C \) divides the line segment \( AB \) is \( m:n = 3:1 \). ...
