The given points are P(2, -2), Q(7, 3), R(11, -1) and S (6, -6).
PQ=
(3−(−2))
2
+(7−2)
2
=
25+25
=5

QR=
(7−11)
2
+(3−(−1))
2
=
16+16
=4

RS=
(11−6)
2
+(−1−(−6))
2
=
25+25
=5

PS=
(2−6)
2
+(−2−(−6))
2
=
16+16
=4

So, PQ = RS and QR = PS
Thus, opposite sides are equal.
Hence, the given points form a parallelogram
