Question

The Point $A$ on x-axis and point $B$ on y-axis and the mid-point of the line segment AB is shown in the figure is $(4-3)$. Then, the co-ordinates of A and B are

• A. $(8,0)$ and $(0,-6)$
• B. $(0,8)$ and $(0,-6)$
• C. $(8,0)$ and $(-6,0)$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$(8,0)$ and $(0,-6)$

$A=(x,0),B=(0,y)$

$4=\frac{x+0}{2}$

$x=8$

$-3=\frac{0+y}{2}$

$y=-6$

Hence $A=(8,0)andB=(0,-6)$
