determine if the point (-4,3),(0,3) And (2,3) are collinear
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
(x1,y1)=(-4,3)
(x2,y2)=(0,3)
(x3,y3)=(2,3)
1/2{(x2(y3-y1)+x3(y1-y2)+ x1(y2-y3)
1/2{0(3-3)+2(3-3)-4(3-3)}
1/2{0+0+0}
0
given points are collinear
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:(-4,3),(0,3) and (2,3)
To find: Determine whether the points are collinear or not.
Solution:
We know that collinear means lies on a straight line.
If three points lies on a straight line,they will never form a triangle.
Thus,we can say area formed by these points will be zero.
Area of triangle: A(x1,y1),B(x2,y2) and C(x3,y3)
Let points
A (-4,3), B(0,3) And C(2,3)
put these values in the formula
Thus,
All three points are collinear.
Hope it helps you.
