Show that the points A(- 4, -1), B(-2, - 4), C(4, 0) and D(2, 3) are the vertices points of a rectangle.
Vertices of rectangle ABCD are: A(- 4, -1), B(-2, - 4), C(4, 0) and D(2, 3)
Length of side AB =
Length of side AB =
= 
= 
units
Length of side BC =
= 
= 
= 
units
Length of side CD =
= 
= 
units
Length of side DA =
= 
= 
= 
units
Length of diagonal BD =
= 
= 
units
Length of diagonal AC =
= 
= 
units
Since opposite sides are equal and diagonal are equal. Therefore given vertices are the vertices of a rectangle.
