        The straight lines \[x+y=0,3x+y-4=0\] and \[x+3y-4=0\]form a triangle which is

    A)  right angled      

    B)  equilateral

    C)  isosceles            

    D)  none of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Given three straight lines \[x+y=0,\text{ }3x+y-4=0\] and            \[x+3y-4=0\] to be sides of triangles. On solving, we get vertices of\[\Delta ABC\]are \[A(2,-2),B(1,1),C(-2,2)\]. \[\therefore \] \[AB=\sqrt{{{(1-2)}^{2}}+{{(1+2)}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10}\]                 \[BC=\sqrt{{{(-2-1)}^{2}}+{{(2-1)}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{9+1}=\sqrt{10}\]                 \[CA=\sqrt{{{(2+2)}^{2}}+{{(-2-2)}^{2}}}\]                 \[=\sqrt{16+16}=\sqrt{32}\] \[\therefore \]  \[AB=BC\] \[\Rightarrow \] triangle is isosceles.
