In Problems 25-28, the given three points form a triangle. Determine which triangle are isosceles and which are right triangles. (0, 0, 0), (3, 6, - 6), (2, 1, 2) (0, 0, 0), (1, 2, 4), (3, 2, 2 Squareroot 2) (1, 2, 3), (4, 6, 4) (1, 1, - 1), (1, 1, 1), (0, -1, 1)
Solution
25. Let A(0,0,0), B(3,6,-6),C(2,1,2)
AB=sqrt((3-0)2+(6-0)2+(-6-0)2)= 9
BC=sqrt( (2-3)2+(1-6)2+(2-(-6))2)=sqrt90
AC=sqrt((2-0)2)+(1-0)2+(2-0)2)=3
Here we are getting
AB2+AC2=BC2
Hence it is a right triangle
Similarly we have to check each questions and if two sides are equal then the triangle is isosceles and if they follows pythagorean theorem then its right triangle
