The points A(5, -1, 1); B(7, -4, 7); C(1, -6, 10) and D(-1, -3, 4) are vertices of a [RPET 2000]
Square
Rhombus
Rectangle
None of these
∵ AB = BC = CD = DA = 7. Also →AB.→BC≠0 ∴ ABCD is not squre. It is rhombus.
Verify the following :
(i) (0, 7, -10), (1, 6, -6) and (4, 9, -6) are vertices of an isosceles triangle.
(ii) (0, 7, 10), (-1, 6, 6) and (-4, 9, 6) are vertices of a right-angled triangle.
(iii) (-1, 2, 1), (1, -2, 5), (4, -7, 8) and (2, -3, 4) are vertices of a parallelogram.
(iv) (5, -1, 1), (7, -4, 7) , (1, -6, 10) and (-1,-3, 4) are vertices of a rhombus.
If A be square matrix of order n and if |A| = D and |adj A| = D' , then [RPET 2000]
