Determine whether the three points P = (-1, -7, 3), Q = (2, -1,12), R = (5, 5, 21) are colinear by computing the distances between
pairs of points.
Distance from P to Q:……………..
Distance from Q to R:……………
Distance from P to R:……………
Are the three points colinear (y/n)?………..
Solution:-
Distance from P to Q.
3
Distance from Q to R.
3
Distance from P to R.
6
