Answer:
We have,
A(0, −1), B(−2, 3), C(6, 7) and D(8, 3)
AB=√(−2−0)^2 +(3+1)^2
=>√4+16=2√25
BC=√(6+2)^2+(7−3)^2
=>√64+16= 4√5
CD=√(8−6)^2+(3−7)^2
=>√4+16= 2√5
DA=√(0−8)^2+(−1−3)^2
=>√64+16=4√5
∴AB=CD and BC=DA
So, ABCD is a parallelogram.
Now,
AC=√(6−0)^2+(7+1)^2
=>√36+64=10
BD=√(8+2)^2+(3−3)^2
=>√100+0=10
Diagonals are also equal and we can see that,
AC^2=AB^2+BC^2 and BD^2=AB^2+AD^2
So, ABCD is a rectangle.
