Using distance formula decide whether the points (4, 3), (5, 1), and (1, 9) are collinear or not.
उत्तर
Let A(x1, y1) = A(4, 3), B(x2, y2) = B(5, 1), C(x3, y3) = C(1, 9)
∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
= `sqrt((5 -4)^2 + (1 - 3)^2`
= `sqrt(1^2 + (-2)^2`
= `sqrt(1+ 4)`
= `sqrt(5)` ......(i)
∴ d(B, C) = `sqrt((x_3 - x_2)^2 + (y_3 - y_2)^2`
= `sqrt((1 - 5)^2 + (9 - 1)^2`
= `sqrt((-4)^2 + 8^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 64)`
=`sqrt(80)`
= `4sqrt(5)` ......(ii)
∴ d(A, C) = `sqrt((x_3 -x_1)^2 + (y_3 - y_2)^2`
= `sqrt((1 - 4)^2 + (9 - 3)^2`
= `sqrt((-3)^2 + 6^2`
= `sqrt(9 + 36)`
= `sqrt(45)`
= `3sqrt(5)` .....(iii)
`sqrt(5) + 3sqrt(5) = 4sqrt(5)`
∴ d(A, B) + d(A, C) = d(B, C) ......[From (i), (ii) and (iii)]
∴ Points A, B, C are collinear.

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`
