Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the distance between the two points (x
1
,y

) and (x
2
,y

) is
d=
(x

−x

)

+(y

−y

)

Let the given vertices be A=(8,−4), B=(9,5) and C=(0,4)
We first find the distance between A=(8,−4) and B=(9,5) as follows:
AB=
(x

−x

)
2
+(y

−y

)

=
(10−2)

+(1−1)

=

=8
Similarly, the distance between B=(9,5) and C=(0,4) is:
BC=
(x

−x

)

+(y

Now, the distance between C=(0,4) and A=(8,−4) is:
CA=
(x

−x

)
2
+(y

−y
1
)

=
(6−2)

=

=
16+64
=

=

=4

We also know that If any two sides have equal side lengths, then the triangle is isosceles.
Here, since the lengths of the two sides are equal that is BC=CA=4

Hence, the given vertices are the vertices of an isosceles triangle.
