Answer:
: The proof is given below.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to show that the points A(3,1), B(6,4) and C(8,6) are collinear using distance formula.
Distance formula : The distance between the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by
D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.
We know that
any three points P, Q and R are collinear if PQ + QR = PR.
Now, the lengths AB, BC and AC can be calculated using distance formula as follows :
AB=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(4-1)^2}=\sqrt{9+9}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2},\\\\\\BC=\sqrt{(8-6)^2+(6-4)^2}=\sqrt{4+4}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt2,\\\\\\AC=\sqrt{(8-3)^2+(6-1)^2}=\sqrt{25+25}=\sqrt{50}=5\sqrt{2}.
We note that
3\sqrt5+2\sqrt=5\sqrt5\\\\\Rightarrow AB+BC=AC.
Thus, the points A, B and C are collinear.
Hence proved.
