Assumption
P(3, 0), Q(6, 4) and R(- 1, 3)
Using distance formula,
PQ = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
PQ = √(6 - 3)² + (4 - 0)²
PQ = √(3)² + (4)²
PQ = √(9 + 16)
PQ = √25 units
Now,
QR = √(-1 - 6)² + (3 - 4)²
QR = √(-7)² + (-1)²
QR = √(49 + 1)
QR = √50 units
Now,
PC = √(-1 - 3)² + (3 - 0)²
PR = √(-4)² + (3)²
PR = √(16 + 9)
PR = √25 units
Here,
PQ = PR = √25 .
So,
Triangle is an isosceles triangle
So,
In ∆PQR,
Using Pythagoras theorem
QR² = PQ² + PR²
(√50)² = (√25)² + (√25)²
50 = 25 + 25
50 = 50
Here
QR² = PQ² + PR²
Therefore,
Triangle is a right angled triangle.
