Prove that the points `A(2,0,-3), B (1,-2,-5)` and `C(3,2,-1)` are collinear. |
|
Answer» The equations of the lines AB are `(x-2)/(3-2) =(y-0)/(2-0) =(z-3)/(-1-3) rArr (x-2)/(1)=(y)/(2) =(z-3)/(-4)` putting x=1 y =-2 and z=-5 in (i) we get `(1-2)/(1)=(-2)/(2)=(-5-3)/(-4)` which is clearly true . Thus the point C(1,-2,-5) satifies the equations of line AB. Hence the given points A ,B and C are collinear . |
