The triangle with vertices at $(-2,2),(2,-2)$ and $(1,1)$ is

The triangle with vertices at $(-2,2),(2,-2)$ and $(1,1)$ is
  1. scalene triangle
  2. equilateral triangle
  3. isosceles triangle
  4. right-angled triangle

Solution

Let $A(-2,2), B(2,-2)$ and $C(1,1)$ are the vertices of $\triangle A B C$. $ \begin{array}{r} A B=\sqrt{(2+2)^2+(-2-2)^2}=\sqrt{4+4}=4 \sqrt{2} \\ B C=\sqrt{(1-2)^2+(1+2)^2}=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10} \\ A C=\sqrt{(1+2)^2+(1-2)^2}=\sqrt{9+1}=\sqrt{10} \end{array} $ $\triangle A B C$ is an isosceles triangle
