(a) p_1 = ⊥^r  from A(1,3) to line =((∣3×1+4×3−9∣)/( (√(3^2 +4^2 )))) = (6/5) = 1.2          p_2  = ⊥^r  from B(2,7) to line =((∣3×2+4×7−9∣)/( (√(3^2 +4^2 )))) = ((25)/5) = 5          ratio of division = ((1.2)/5) = ((12)/(50)) = (6/(25))  from A           [notic: the ratio of division of segment = the ratio between             perpendiculars due to similarity]  (b) equation of line:          (x/a) + (y/b) = 1 ⇒ bx + ay = ab          p = ((∣b×0+a×0−ab∣)/( (√(a^2 +b^2 )))) ⇒ p = ((ab)/( (√(a^2 +b^2 ))))       squaring          p^2  = ((a^2 b^2 )/( a^2 +b^2 )) ⇒ (1/p^2 ) = ((a^2 +b^2 )/(a^2 b^2 )) ⇒ (1/p^2 ) = (1/b^2 ) + (1/a^2 )
