Plot the points A (1, –1) and B (4, 5)
(i) Draw a line segment joining these points. Write the coordinates of a point on this line segment between the points A and B.
(ii) Extend this line segment and write the coordinates of a point on this line which lies outside the line segment AB.
(i)
The points which lie on the line segment AB are C and D.
C(2, 1) and D(3, 3).
(ii)
The points lying on the line outside AB are E and F.
E(0, -3) and F(-1, -5).
