Answer -
Given:
The vertices of the triangle are A (5, 4, 6), B (1, -1, 3) and C(4, 3, 2).
By using the formulas let us find the coordinates of D and thelength of AD
The distance between any two points (a, b, c) and (m, n, o)is given by,
The section formula is given as
AB : AC = 5:3
BD: DC = 5:3
So, m = 5 and n = 3
B(1, -1, 3) and C(4, 3, 2)
Coordinates of D using section formula:
