AB is a line segment of length 6 units where A is (t, 0) and B lies on the positive y-axis
Let B be (0, k) and the coordinates of P be (x, y)
As it is given that P is at a distance of 2 from A and lies on AB
Therefore, AP = 2 and PB = 4
So, we can say P divides the line segment AB in the ratio 1 : 2
