Assertion :Po...
Question
Assertion :Points P(−sin(β−α),−cosβ),Q(cos(β−α),sinβ) and R(cos(β−α+θ),sin(β−θ)), where β=π4+α2 are non-collinear. Reason: Three given points are non-collinear if they form a triangle of non-zero area.

Solution
The correct option is D Assertion is incorrect but the Reason is correct Reason is wrong as three points are collinear when area of triangle formed is zero. Area of triangle PQR =12∣∣
