A1, A2, A3............are points at equal distances on ray AX and B1,B2,B3.......are points at equal distances on ray BY. If AB has to be divided in the ratio 5:2 which points have to be joined to get the point of division C on AB?? Write out the similar triangles formed?

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Given : A1 , A2 , A3 . . . are points at equal distances on ray AX and B1 , B2 , B3 . . . are points at equal distances on ray BY.

And

If AB has to be divided in the ratio 5 : 2  , So we joined  A7 to B  ,  and

A5 to B5  and line A5 to B5 intersect line AB at C at ratio of 5 : 2 .
