Question 1131197
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let C be represented by the ordered pair *[tex \Large (x,y)], then the horizontal distance from A to C, namely *[tex \Large x\ -\ 1], because of the proportionality of the sides of similar triangles must be in a 1:4 ratio with the horizontal distance from C to B, namely *[tex \Large 8\ -\ x].  Hence, we can write:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{x\ -\ 1}{8\ -\ x}\ =\ \frac{1}{4}]


Solve for *[tex \Large x] to obtain the abscissa of point C.  The other coordinate is found in a similar fashion.
