(b) Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of AB.
(c) C is a point on AB.
C divides AB in the ratio 3 : 2.
Find the coordinates of C.
3. | IB Studies |
The vertices of quadrilateral ABCD are A (2, 4), B (-1, 5), C (–3, 4) and D (–2, 2).
(a) Calculate the gradient of line CD.
(b) Show that line AD is perpendicular to line CD.
(c) Find the equation of line CD. Give your answer in the form \(ax+by=c\) where \(a,b,c\in \mathbf Z\)
Lines AB and CD intersect at point E.
(d) Find the coordinates of E.
