You will use the GeoGebra geometry tool to divide a line segment in a given ratio. Go to line segment ratios, and complete each step below. If you need help, follow these instructions for using GeoGebra. Question 1
Any line segment that is not horizontal or vertical can be represented as the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are aligned with the x- and y-axes. In GeoGebra, is shown as the hypotenuse of such a triangle. You will divide in the ratio 2 : 3 using the ideas you’ve seen so far in the lesson:

Find and record the lengths of the horizontal and vertical sides of the right triangle.
Find and record the x-coordinate of a point that divides the horizontal side in the ratio 2 : 3. Use the formula from the lesson to guide you:
.

Find and record the y-coordinate of a point that divides the vertical side in the ratio 2 : 3. Use the formula from the lesson to guide you:

Consider a point C that has the x-coordinate of the point that divides the horizontal side in the ratio 2 : 3 and the y-coordinate of the point that divides the vertical side in the ratio 2 : 3. Write down the coordinates of point C. This is the point that divides in the ratio of 2 : 3.
