Determine whether the given point is collinear.
\[P\left( 1, 2 \right), Q\left( 2, \frac{8}{5} \right), R\left( 3, \frac{6}{5} \right)\]
उत्तर
\[P\left( 1, 2 \right), Q\left( 2, \frac{8}{5} \right), R\left( 3, \frac{6}{5} \right)\]
Slope of PQ = \[\frac{\frac{8}{5} - 2}{2 - 1} = \frac{\frac{- 2}{5}}{1} = \frac{- 2}{5}\]
Slope of QR = \[\frac{\frac{6}{5} - \frac{8}{5}}{3 - 2} = \frac{\frac{- 2}{5}}{1} = \frac{- 2}{5}\]
So, the slope of PQ = slope of QR.
Point Q lies on both the lines.
Hence, the given points are collinear.

Determine whether the following points are collinear. A(–1, –1), B(0, 1), C(1, 3)
Given: Points A(–1, –1), B(0, 1) and C(1, 3)
Slope of line AB = `(square - square)/(square - square) = square/square` = 2
Slope of line BC = `(square - square)/(square - square) = square/square` = 2
Slope of line AB = Slope of line BC and B is the common point.
