Show that the points (1,-1),(5,2) and (...

Show that the points `(1,-1),(5,2)` and `(9 ,5)` are collinear.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `A(1,-1), B(5,2)` and `C(9,5)` be the given points. Then,we have
`AB=sqrt((5−1)^2+(2+1)^2 )=16+9 ​=5`
BC=`sqrt((5−9)^2+(2−5)^2) ​=16+9 ​=5`
and, AC=`sqrt((1−9)^2+(−1−5)^2) ...
