Correct Answer: (–7, –3)
Solution : Given: The coordinates of the point A are (11, 5). Let the co-ordinates of the point B be $(x,y)$. Since, the point P (2, 1) is the mid-point, ⇒ $2=\frac{11+x}{2}$ ⇒ $2×2=11+x$ ⇒ $x=–7$ Similarly, $1=\frac{5+y}{2}$ ⇒ $1×2=5+y$ ⇒ $y=–3$ So, the coordinates of B are (–7,–3). Hence, the correct answer is (–7,–3).
