By using the distance formula,
d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
d1=√(-1-(-2))² + (2-(-2))²
d1=√(-1)²+(4)²
d1=√1+16
d1=√17...(For AB)(1)
d2=√(3-(-1))²+(1-2)²
d2=√(4)²+(-1)²
d2=√16+1
d2=√17...(For BC)(2)
d3=√(-2-3)²+(-2-1)²
d3=√(5)²+(3)²
d3=√25+9
d3=√34...(For CA)(3)
Since the sides (1) and (2) are the same and (3) is different, just like in an isoceles triangle,
Hence, the points (-2,-2),(-1,2) and (3,1) are the vertices of an isoceles triangle.
