Description : If the three points (k, 2k), (2k, 3k) and (3, 1) are collinear then k is equal to -Maths 9th
Last Answer : (d) 3Let (x, y) be the co-ordinates of the third vertex of the triangle. Then\(rac{0+2+x}{3}\) = 1 and \(rac{0+0+y}{3}\) = 1⇒ 2 + \(x\) = 3 and y = 3 ⇒ \(x\) = 1, y = 3. ∴ Co-ordinates of vertices of the triangle ... - y3) + x2 (y2 - y3) + x3(y1 - y2)]= \(rac{1}{2}\) [0+6+0] = \(rac{6}{2}\) = 3.
