Prove that the
Given:
Vertices are
Formula Used:
Slope of a line is given by
Slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other.
Calculation:
The given vertices of the triangle are
The slope of the line joining the points
Now, the slope of the line with points
Now, the slope of the line with points
Since, the slopes
Hence, the lines joining these points are perpendicular to each other.
Therefore, we can conclude that the given vertices are of a right triangle.
