Answer 2

$\underline{ \underline{ \mathfrak{Answer}}} : - \\ \implies \: \boxed{b = 2a} \\ \\ \underline{ \underline{\mathfrak{Explanation}}} : - \\ \\ \underline{\underline{\mathfrak{Given}}} : -$

Points are :-

A ( 0,0) , B ( 1,2) , C ( a ,b )

let ,

$x1 = 0 \: \: ,\: y1 = 0 \\ \\ x2 = 1 \: , \: y2 = 2 \\ \\ x3 = a \: ,\: y3 = b$

According to the question-

Let given points are collinear then,

$we \: know \: that ,\\ \\ \frac{1}{2} \bigg(x1(y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2) \bigg) = 0 \\ \\ replacing \: given \: values \: \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} \bigg(0(2 - b) + 1(b - 0) + a(0 - 2) \bigg) = 0 \\ \\ 0 + b - 2a = 0 \\ \\ \boxed{b = 2a} \\ \\ \red{This \: is \: the \: required \: relation \: between \: a \: and \:b}$
