A) Parallelogram
B) Triangle
C) Square
D) None of these
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Let the points are A (2, 3), B (3,4), C(5,6) and D (4, 5). |
Then, by distance formula |
\[AB=\sqrt{{{\left( 3-2 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 4-3 \right)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{{{\left( 1 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 1 \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{2}\] units |
\[BC=\sqrt{{{\left( 5-3 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 6-4 \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{{{\left( 2 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 2 \right)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{4+4}\] |
\[=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}\] units |
\[CD=\sqrt{{{\left( 4-5 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 5-6 \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{{{\left( -1 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( -1 \right)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{2}\] units |
and\[AD=\sqrt{{{\left( 4-2 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 5-3 \right)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{{{\left( 2 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( 2 \right)}^{2}}}\] |
\[=\sqrt{4+4}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}\]units |
Here, \[AB=CD\]and \[AD=BC\] i.e. the opposite sides are equal. So, given points are vertices of a parallelogram. |
