उत्तर
We have three collinear points A(1,2) ;B(-5,6) ;C(a, - 2).
In general if `A(x_1 ,y_1) ;B(x_2 , y_2) ;C(x_3 ,y_3)` are collinear then,
`x_1(y_2 - y_3 ) + x_2 (y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1-y_2) = 0`
So,
1(6 + 2) - 5(- 2-2)+ a (2 -6 ) = 0
So,
-4a + 8 + 20 = 0
Therefore,
a = 7

(Street Plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines.
There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
- how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
