Problem 100 of 7
Determine whether point (4,1) lies on segment from (-2,4) to (6,0).
Using a hint is okay. It just tells the trainer to give you a little more review.

Your answer is equivalent to the expected form.
Walkthrough
Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Check whether displacement ratios are consistent for collinearity.
2. Check whether the fraction lies between 0 and 1.
3. Classify on, outside extension, or off line.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Collinearity alone for points outside the segment.
