1. Plot the points A = (-2, -1), B = (0, 7), C = (3, 2) and form the triangle ABC. State whether the triangle is an
isosceles triangle, a right triangle, neither of these, or both.
2. Plot the points D = (-6, 3), E = (3, -5), F = (-1, 5) and form the triangle DEF. Using distance formula verify
that the triangle is a right triangle. Also find its area.
3. Plot the point A = (0, 0), B = (6, 0), and C = (4, 4) and form the triangle ABC. Find the lengths of the
medians of the triangle.
4. Plot the points A = (1, -1), B = (4, 1), C = (2, 2) and D = (5, 4) and form the quadrilateral. Using distance
formula show that the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
5. Plot the points A = (0, 0), B = (1, 3), C = (4, 2) and D = (3,-1) and form the quadrilateral. Using distance
formula show that the quadrilateral is a square. Find its area.
6. Plot the points P = (-2, 5), Q = (1, 3) and R = (-1, 0) and form the triangle PQR. Using slopes show that the
triangle is a right triangle. Also find its area.
7. Plot the points A = (-1, 0), B = (2, 3), C = (1,-2) and D = (4, 1) and form the quadrilateral. Using slopes show
that the quadrilateral is a rectangle. Find its area
