Triangle ABC has vertices A(2,0), B(6,0) and C(4,5). Prove that the triangle is isosceles and not a right triangle

Explanation:

An isosceles triangle is one with two equal lengths.

To find the lengths of the sides with coordinates

(

x

,

y

)

,

(

,

y

)

we use Pythagoras' theorem

only 10/60 isn't equivalent

hope this : )

step-by-step explanation:

an equation by definition has to have two or more variables (x and 2 in this case)
