Answer:

let , A(4,4) ;B(5,-1) ;C(-6,2)

by distance formula

AB= root ( (5-4)^2+(-1-4)^2)

=root(1+25)

=root(26)units

BC=root( ( -6-5)^2+(2+1)^2)

=root(121+9)

=root(130)units

AC=root( ( -6-4)^2+(2-4)^2)

=root(121+4)

=root(125)

=5root(5)unit

if abc is a right angled triagle then,

BC^2=AB^2+AC^2

130=26+125

130=151

SO, abc isnot a right sngled triangle

Answer:

let, A=(4,4 )

B=(5,-1)

C=(-6,2)

Now,

Distance AB=√(5-4)²+(-1-4)²

=√1²+(-5)²

=√1+25

=√26

Distance BC=√(-6-5)²+(2+1)²

=√(-11)²+3²

=√121+9

=√140

Distance CA=√(4+6)²+(4-2)²

=√10²+2²

=√100+4

=√104

By Pythagoras theorem,

BC²=AB²+CA²

=>√130²=√26²+√104²

=> 130 = 26+ 104

=> 130=130

Hence Proof

•°•(4,4),(5,-1)&(-6,2) are the vertices of a right angeled traingle

Step-by-step explanation:

1.In distance CA,4-(-6) is written as 4+6 as minus×minus is plus.

2.In Pythagoras Theorem part , we cancel the root with the squares , i.e. ².

Hope you are satisfied with the answers .
