प्रश्न
What type of a quadrilateral do the points A(2, –2), B(7, 3), C(11, –1) and D(6, –6) taken in that order, form?
उत्तर
The points are A(2, –2), B(7, 3), C(11, –1) and D(6, –6)
Using distance formula,
d = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
AB = `sqrt((7 - 2)^2 + (3 + 2)^2`
= `sqrt((5)^2 + (5)^2`
= `sqrt(25 + 25)`
= `sqrt(50)`
= 5`sqrt(2)`
BC = `sqrt((11 - 7)^2 + (-1 - 3)^2`
= `sqrt((4)^2 + (-4)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 16)`
= `sqrt(32)`
= `4sqrt(2)`
CD = `sqrt((6 - 11)^2 + (-6 + 1)^2`
= `sqrt((-5)^2 + (-5)^2`
= `sqrt(25 + 25)`
= `sqrt(50)`
= `5sqrt(2)`
DA = `sqrt((2 - 6)^2 + (-2 + 6)^2`
= `sqrt((-4)^2 + (4)^2`
= `sqrt(16 + 16)`
= `sqrt(32)`
= `4sqrt(2)`
Finding diagonals AC and BD, we get,
AC = `sqrt((11 - 2)^2 + (-1 + 2)^2`
= `sqrt((9)^2 + (1)^2`
= `sqrt(81 + 1)`
= `sqrt(82)`
And BD = `sqrt((6 - 7)^2 + (-6 - 3)^2`
= `sqrt((-1)^2 + (-9)^2`
= `sqrt(1 + 81)`
= `sqrt(82)`
The quadrilateral formed is rectangle.
