प्रश्न
Determine whether the given point is collinear.
A (0, 2), B (1, -0.5), C (2, -3)
उत्तर
A (0, 2), B (1, -0.5), C (2, -3)
Slope of line AB = `("y"_2-"y"_1)/(x_2-x_1)`
= `(-0.5 - 2)/(1- 0)`
= `(-2.5)/1`
∴ Slope of line AB = -2.5 ...(1)
Slope of line BC = `(-3-(-0.5))/(2- 1)`
= `-2.5/1`
∴ Slope of line AB = -2.5 ...(2)
From (1) & (2)
So, the slope of AB = slope of BC.
Point B lies on both the lines.
Hence, the given points are collinear.

Solution:
Slope of line = `("y"_2 - "y"_1)/("x"_2 - "x"_1)`
∴ Slope of line AB = `(2 - 1)/(8 - 6) = square` .......(i)
∴ Slope of line BC = `(4 - 2)/(9 - 8) = square` .....(ii)
∴ Slope of line CD = `(3 - 4)/(7 - 9) = square` .....(iii)
∴ Slope of line DA = `(3 - 1)/(7 - 6) = square` .....(iv)
∴ Slope of line AB = `square` ......[From (i) and (iii)]
∴ line AB || line CD
∴ Slope of line BC = `square` ......[From (ii) and (iv)]
∴ line BC || line DA
