Answer:
Given that,
A(1,2), B(4,3), C(6,6), D(3,5).
the distance between (x1,x2) and (y1,y2)=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
Distance between A and B=√(4-1)²+(3-2)²
=√3²+1²=√9+1=√10 units
Distance between B and C=√(6-4)²+(6-3)²
=√2²+3²=√4+9=√12 units
Distance between C and D=√(3-6)²+(5-6)²
=√(-3)²+(-1)²=√9+1=√10 units
Distance between D and A=√(3-1)²+(5-2)²
=√2²+3²=√4+9=√12 units.
Distance between A and C=√(6-1)²+(6-2)²
=√5²+4²=√25+16=√41 units
Distance between B and D=√(3-4)²+(5-3)²
=√(-1)²+(2)²=√1+4=√5 units.
We notice that,
AB=CD, BC=DA and AC≠BD
therefore the vertices form a parallelogram.
