Python | sympy is_collinear() method

The function is_collinear() enables us to check whether the given points(coordinates) are collinear 
or not. 

Syntax: 

Parameters:  x, y, z are coordinates.

Return: True : if points are collinear, otherwise False.

Example #1:

Python3

# import sympy and geometry module
from sympy import *
from sympy.geometry import *

x = Point(0, 0)
y = Point(1, 1)
z = Point(2, 2)

# Using Point.is_collinear() method
isTrue = Point.is_collinear(x, y, z)

print(isTrue)

Output:

True

Example #2:

Python3

# import sympy and geometry module
from sympy import *
from sympy.geometry import *

x = Point(1, 0)
y = Point(1, 2)
z = Point(2, 2)

# Using Point.is_collinear() method
isTrue = Point.is_collinear(x, y, z)

print(isTrue)

Output:

False
