उत्तर

Let the yz - plane divide the line sgement joining the points (2, 4,5) and (3, −5, 4) in m : 1.
Now, we know that on yz-plane the coordinate of x is 0.

\[\therefore \frac{m \times 3 + 1 \times 2}{m + 1} = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow 3m + 2 = 0\]
\[ \Rightarrow m = - \frac{2}{3}\] 

Hence, yz - plane divide the line sgement joining the points (2, 4,5) and (3, −5, 4) in 2 : 3 externally.
