Are two vectors coplanar?
Any two non-zero vectors define a plane. Are three vectors coplanar?
The vectors are coplanar iff the parallelepiped formed by the three vectors has Volume=0
24
Example
Are 1,4,-7 , 2, 1,4 , 0, 9,18 coplanar?

1 18 4 36 7 18
18 144 126 0
The three vectors are coplanar
25
Are three points coplanar?
Any three points define a plane. Are four points coplanar?
From the four points, three vectors can be formed with a common tail. If the vectors are coplanar, then the points are coplanar.
