Do the points (3,2),(-2,-3),and (2,3) form a triangle? If so, name type of triangle formed.

so AB² = 50. Similarly, AC² = 1² + 1² = 2², so right away we see that the triangle isn't equilateral. Meanwhile BC² = (-2 -2)² + (-3 -3)² = 16 + 36 = 52 - sightly more than AB². So it's not isosceles either.
Finally, we should check to see if it's right-angled.
The vector AB is (-5, -5); AC is (-1, 1); and BC = (4, 6).
Notice that AB and AC are indeed perpendicular, meaning that the triangle has a right angle at A.

a=(3,2)
b=(-2,-3)
c=(2,3)
distance²=(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
ab²=(3--2)²+(2--3)²
= 25+25
ab=√50
ac²=(3-2)²+(2-3)²
=1+1
ac=√2
bc²=(2--2)²+(3--3)²
= 16+36
bc= √52
if this triangle is a right angled triangle..
bc²=ab²+ac²(pythagorus
52=50+2
so it is a right angled triangle
b=(-2,-3)
