उत्तर
We have three collinear points A(a,0) ; B ( 0 , b ) ; C (1 , 1 ) .
In general if `A(x_1,y_1) ;B(x_2 ,y_2) ;C(x_3 ,y_3)` are collinear then,
`x_1 (y_2 -y_3) + x_2 (y_3 - y_1) + x_3 (y_1 - y_2) = 0`
So,
a(b- 1 )+ 0 (1 - 0) + 1(0 - b) = 0
So,
ab = a + b
Divide both the sides by (ab) ,
`1/a + 1/b = 1`

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
The distance of the point (–6, 8) from x-axis is ______.
