Question

determine whether the givent points are collinear :L(1,2),M(5,3),N(8,6).​

Answer 1

Answer:

from LM:

by using distance formula

√(1-5) ^2+(2-3) ^2

√16+1

=√17

now from MN

by using distance formula

√(5-8) ^2+(3-6) ^2

=√9+9

=√18

hence we are getting different values so these points are non collinear
