Solution
The correct option is C Three collinear points Let z1=x1+iy1 z2=x2+iy2 z3=x3+iy3 Area of Δ formed by z1,z2&z3 =12∣∣
∣
∣∣x1y11x2y21x3y31∣∣
∣
∣∣ R1=R1−R2 Area =12∣∣
∣
∣∣x1−x2y1−y20x2y21x3y31∣∣
∣
∣∣ R3=R3−R2 Area=12∣∣
∣
∣∣x1−x2y1−y20x2y21x3−x2y3−y20∣∣
∣
∣∣⟶(i) 2z1−3z2+z3=0 2z1−2z2−z2+z3=0 z3−z2=2(z2−z1)∴x3−x2=2(x2−x1) ; y3−y2=2(y2−y1) Area=12∣∣
∣
∣∣x1−x2y1−y20x2y21−2(x1−x2)−2(y1−y2)0∣∣
∣
∣∣ Area=−22∣∣
∣
∣∣x1−x2y1−y20x2y21x1−x2y1−y20∣∣
∣
∣∣=0(∵RowsR1&R3areidentical) Since Area=0∴z1,z2&z3 are collinear
