What are the names of three collinear points? A. Points V, T, and Y are collinear. B. Points T, V, and U are collinear. C. Points Z, Y, and X are collinear. D. Points Z, Y, and U are collinear.
Question
Answer:
A collinear point is a set of three points that lie on a straight line.WIth this knowledge we can eliminate non-straight line points to find the three collinear points out of the 4 possible points you gave.
Looking at possible collinear point A, we see that point V and T are on a straight line but Y is not. A is NOT a possible collinear point.
Letter B IS a collinear point because T, V, and U are on a straight line.
Letter C is NOT a collinear point because although Z and Y are on a straight line, X is not on that line.
Letter D is also NOT a collinear point because again, although Z and Y are on a straight line, U is not on that line.
There is only one point which is a collinear point, letter B.
