उत्तर
Let A(-1, -1) , B(2,3) and C( 8,11) be the give points. Then
`AB = sqrt((2+1)^2 +(3+1)^2) = sqrt((3)^2 +(4)^2) = sqrt(25)` =5 units
`BC=sqrt((8-2)^2 +(11-3)^2 = sqrt(6)^2 +(8)^2 = sqrt(100) `= 10 units
`AC = sqrt(( 8+1)^2 +(11+1)^2 ) = sqrt((9)^2 +(12)^2 = sqrt(225) `= 15 units
∴ AB +BC = (5+10) units = 15 units = Ac
Hence, the given points are 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. A family from Uttar Pradesh planned a round trip from Lucknow (L) to Puri (P) via Bhuj (B) and Nashik (N) as shown in the given figure below.
