Question

The points O(0, 0), A(5, 0) and B(0, 5) are joined in order to form a/an __________ triangle.

Answer 1

The given points are O(0, 0), A(5, 0) and B(0, 5). These points can be plotted on the graph paper as shown below.



Here, OA = 5 units and OB = 5 units

∴ OA = OB

Hence, the points O(0, 0), A(5, 0) and B(0, 5) form an isosceles right ∆OAB right angled at O.

The points O(0, 0), A(5, 0) and B(0, 5) are joined in order to form a/an __isosceles right__ triangle.
