Correct choice is (a) 2y-x=0
The best explanation: Let C(x,y) be a point on the line AB. Thus, the points A(2,1), B(6,3), C(x,y) are collinear. Hence, the area of the triangle formed by these points will be 0.
⇒Δ=\(\frac{1}{2}\begin{Vmatrix}2&1&1\\6&3&1\\x&y&1\end{Vmatrix}\)=0
Expanding along C3, we get
\(\frac{1}{2}\) {1(6y-3x)-1(2y-x)+1(6-6)}=0
\(\frac{1}{2}\) {6y-3x-2y+x}=\(\frac{1}{2}\) {4y-2x}=0
⇒2y-x=0
