To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 3:4, first, a ray AX is drawn so that ∠BAX is an acute angle and then at equal distances points are marked on the ray AX such that the minimum number of these points is:
A. 5
B. 7
C. 9
D. 11
Answer:B
To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 3:4, first, a ray AX is drawn so that ∠BAX is an acute angle and then at equal distances points are marked on the ray AX such that the minimum number of these points is:
A. 5 B. 7 C. 9 D. 11
Explanation: We know that to divide a line segment in the ratio m: n, first draw a ray AX which makes an acute angle BAX, then we are required to mark m + n points at equal distances from each other.
