उत्तर
Let A(a, a2), B(b, b2) and C(0, 0) be the coordinates of the given points.
We know that the area of triangle having vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2) and (x3, y3) is ∣∣`1/2`[x1(y2−y3)+x2(y3−y1)+x3(y1−y2)]∣∣ square units.
So,
Area of ∆ABC
`= |1/2|a(b^2 - 0) + b(0 - a^2) + 0(a^2 - b^2)||`
`=|1/2(ab^2 - a^2b)|`
`= 1/2|ab(b -a)|`
`!= 0 (∵ a!= b != 0)`
Since the area of the triangle formed by the points (a, a2), (b, b2) and (0, 0) is not zero, so the given points are not collinear.

In a GPS, The lines that run east-west are known as lines of latitude, and the lines running north-south are known as lines of longitude. The latitude and the longitude of a place are its coordinates and the distance formula is used to find the distance between two places. The distance between two parallel lines is approximately 150 km.
