प्रश्न
Prove that the following set of point is collinear :
(5 , 1),(3 , 2),(1 , 3)
उत्तर
P (5 , 1) Q (3 , 2) R (1 , 3)
PQ = `sqrt ((5 - 3)^2 + (1 - 2)^2) = sqrt (4+1) = sqrt 5` units
QR = `sqrt ((3 - 1)^2 + (2 - 3)^2) = sqrt (4+1) = sqrt 5` units
PR = `sqrt ((5 - 1)^2 + (1 - 3)^2) = sqrt (16+4) = sqrt 20` units
PQ + QR = `sqrt 5 +sqrt 5 = 2sqrt 5 = PR`
∵ PQ + QR = PR
∵ P , Q and R are collinear points.

Find distance between point Q(3, – 7) and point R(3, 3)
Solution: Suppose Q(x1, y1) and point R(x2, y2)
x1 = 3, y1 = – 7 and x2 = 3, y2 = 3
Using distance formula,
d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square - 100)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `square`
