Question
If $\overrightarrow{\text{AO}}+\overrightarrow{\text{OB}}=\overrightarrow{\text{BO}}+\overrightarrow{\text{OC}}$, prove that A, B, C are collinear points.
✓

Answer

Here, $\overrightarrow{\text{AO}}+\overrightarrow{\text{OB}}=\overrightarrow{\text{BO}}+\overrightarrow{\text{OC}}$
$\overrightarrow{\text{OA}}-\overrightarrow{\text{BO}}=\overrightarrow{\text{OB}}-\overrightarrow{\text{CO}}$
$\overrightarrow{\text{AB}}=\overrightarrow{\text{BC}}$
So, $\overrightarrow{\text{AB}}$ is parallel to $\overrightarrow{\text{BC}}$ but $\vec{\text{B}}$ is a common vector. Hence,
A, B, C are collinear.
