If $\mathrm{A}(-3,3), \mathrm{B}(1,1), \mathrm{C}(1,-1)$ and $\mathrm{D}(-2,-2)$ are the vertices of a quadrilateral, the angle between the diagonals $\mathrm{AC}$ and $\mathrm{BD}$ is
  1. $\frac{\pi}{4}$
  2. $\frac{\pi}{2}$
  3. $\frac{\pi}{6}$
  4. $\frac{\pi}{3}$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & m_{A C}=\frac{-1-3}{1-(-3)}=-1 \\ & m_{B D}=\frac{-2-1}{-2-1}=1 \\ & m_{A C} \times m_{B D}=-1 \times 1=-1\end{aligned}$ $A C$ and $B D$ are perpendicular Angle between $A C$ and $B D=\pi / 2$
