Proof Prove that is one of the points of trisection of the line segment joining and Find

Chapter 0, Problem 53

(choose chapter or problem)

Proof Prove that

\(\left(\frac{2 x_{1}+x_{2}}{3}, \frac{2 y_{1}+y_{2}}{3}\right)\)

Is one of the points of trisection of the line segment joining \(\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right)\) and \(\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right)\). Find the midpoint of the line segment joining

\(\left(\frac{2 x_{1}+x_{2}}{3}, \frac{2 y_{1}+y_{2}}{3}\right)\)

and \(\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right)\) to find the second point of trisection.

(2x_1 + x_2/3, 2y_1 + y_2/3)

(x_1, y_1)

(x_2, y_2)
