        A triangle with vertices\[(4,0),(-1,-1),(3,5)\]is:

    A)  isosceles and right angled

    B)  isosceles but not right angled

    C)  right angled but not isosceles

    D)  neither right angled nor isosceles

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[AB=\sqrt{{{(4+1)}^{2}}+{{(0+1)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{26}\] \[BC=\sqrt{{{(3+1)}^{2}}+{{(5+1)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{52}\] \[CA=\sqrt{{{(4-3)}^{2}}+{{(0-5)}^{2}}}=\sqrt{26}\] So. In isosceles triangle side\[AB=CA\]. For right angled triangle.                 \[B{{C}^{2}}=A{{B}^{2}}+A{{C}^{2}}\] So, here \[BC=\sqrt{52}=B{{C}^{2}}=52\] Or           \[{{(\sqrt{26})}^{2}}+{{(\sqrt{26})}^{2}}=52\] So, given vertices is right angled and also is isosceles triangle.
