Find the coordinates of the points which divide the line segment joining A(– 2, 2) andB (2, 8) into four equal parts

It can be observed from the figure that points P, Q, R are dividing the line segment in a ratio 1:3, 1:1, 3:1respectively


Coordinates of P = ()


= (-1, )


Coordinates of Q = ()


= (0, 5)


Coordinates of R = ()


= (1, )
