Answer:

isosceles (based on sides) and right triangle (based on angles)

Explanation:

This is an isosceles triangle because two of the sides are the same distance (it is in cm.). This is also a right triangle because at point B the two lines are perpendicular (using their slopes).

Given the ABC, where A(4,3), B(2,-1), and C(-2,1). Use the slope and distance formula-example-1
