Question
Plot the following points and check whether they are collinear or not:
(1, 1), (2, – 3), (– 1, – 2)
Advertisements
Solution
Plotting the points P(1, 1), Q(2, –3) and R(–1, –2) on the graph paper and join these three points, we get three lines i.e., the given points do not lie on the same line. So, given points are not collinear.
