The figure below shows triangle OAB in which M divides OA in the ratio 2:3 and N divides OB in the ratio 4:1, AN and BM intersect at X
a) Given that OA = a and OB = b, express in terms of a and b:
(i) AN (1mk)
(ii) BM (1mk)
b) If AX = sAN and BX = tBM, where s and t are constants, write an expression for OX in terms of a,b , s and t (2mrks)
c) Find the values of s (4mks)
d) Hence write OX in terms of a and b (2mks)
