Determine whether the following point is collinear.
R(1, –4), S(–2, 2), T(–3, 4)
उत्तर
R(1, –4), S(–2, 2), T(–3, 4)
\[\text { Slope of RS } = \frac{2 - \left( - 4 \right)}{- 2 - 1} = \frac{6}{- 3} = - 2\]
\[\text {Slope of ST} = \frac{4 - 2}{- 3 - \left( - 2 \right)} = \frac{2}{- 1} = - 2\]
Slope of RS = Slope of ST
So, the given points are collinear.

If A(6, 1), B(8, 2), C(9, 4) and D(7, 3) are the vertices of `square`ABCD, show that `square`ABCD is a parallelogram.
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
Both the pairs of opposite sides of the quadrilateral are parallel.
∴ `square`ABCD is a parallelogram.
