Section Formula for Internal and External Division in Vectors
Que-1: OA→ and OB→ are vectors a→ and b→ respectively and X and Y are points of trisection of A B. Find, in terms of a and b .
(i) OX→ and
(ii) OY→
Sol:

Que-2: OA→ and OB→ are vectors a→ and b→ respectively and P and Q are points 1/4 and 3/4 of the way along A B. Find, in terms of a→ and b→ .
(i) OP→ and (ii) OQ→.
Sol:

Que-3: A B C D is quadrilateral in which BC is parallel to AD and the ratio of the lengths BC: AD is 4:7. Taking AB→ and AD→ as representatives of vectors v→ and 7u→ respectively, find which vectors are represented by
(i) BC→
(ii) AC→
(iii) BD→
(iv) DC→
(v) AE→ where E is on BD such that BE = 4/11 BD in length;
(vi) AF→ where F is on AC such that AF = 7/11 AC.
Sol:


Que-4: In fig. given below, B E is median of triangle A B C and G divides B E in the ratio 2 : 1.
(i) If AB→ represents u→ and AC→ represents v→ , show that EB→ represents u→ – 1/2 v→ and AG→ represents 1/3(u→ + v→).

(ii) If CF is a median, and H divides C F in the ratio 2 : 1, show that AH→ represents 1/3(u→ + v→).
(iii) If AD is a median and K divides AD in the ratio 2 : 1, which vector does AK→ represents in terms of u→ and v→ ? What can you conclude about G, H, K ? What can you conclude about the medians of a triangle?
Sol:


Que-6: Four points A, B, C, D with position vectors a→ , b→ , c→ , d→ respectively are

such that 3a→ – b→ + 2c→ – 4d→ = 0→. Show that the four points are coplanar. Also, find the position vector of the points of intersection of lines AC and BD.
Sol:

This shows that the position vector of point P dividing AC in the ratio 2 : 3 is same as that of point dividing B D in the ratio 4 : 1. Hence A C and B D intersects at point P. Thus A, B, C and D are coplanar. Since P be the point of intersection of A C and B D.
Thus, P.V. of the point of intersection of lines AC and BD be ( 3a→ + 2c→ )/5 or ( b→ + 4d→ )/5.
