Answer:

Answer D is correct.

Explanation:

By inspection, the side lengths are {3, 4, 5}, and this triplet satisfies the Pythagorean Theorem: 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2. Thus this IS a right triangle.

One could also find the lengths of the three sides using the distance formula and the endpoints of each line segment forming the triangle.

Answer D is correct.

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the distance formula between points to find all sides:


d=\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^2+(y_(2)-y_(1))^2}

AB=
√(13)

BC=
√(13)

CA=
√(26)

This is a 45° 45° 90° triangle, where two of the sides are equal and the other side is the first two sides times
√(2), so yes, it is a right triangle.
