Answer 2

Given,

p,q,r are three collinear points.

To Find,

The number of line segments which is determined by given these points - p,q,r.

Solution,

Using the following mathematical process, we can easily answer this mathematical question.

We know that The length of a line is endless. On a line, all points are collinear.

Here if three points - p,q,r lie on the same straight line, they are said to be collinear.

In general, three points p, q, and r are collinear if the lengths of any two line segments between pq, qr, rp add up form is equal to the length of the remaining line segment.

From points p and q, a line segment is formed namely, pq.

From points q and r, a line segment is formed namely,qr.

From points p and r, a line segment is formed namely, pr.

Hence, total 3 line segments are determined by these points because here at least two points from a line segment are collinear.
