Test: Dimensional Geometry - 1 - Question 16

Which of the following figures is formed by the points whose coordinates are (0,7,10), (-1,6,6), (-4,9,6)?

Detailed Solution for Test: Dimensional Geometry - 1 - Question 16

The distance between two points in a three dimensional can be calculated as :- 

d = [(x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2 + (z2-z1)2]½

The coordinates are P(0,7,10), Q(-1,6,6), R(-4,9,6)

 PQ = [(0+1)2 + (7-6)2 + (10-6)^2]½

PQ = [1+1+16]½ 

PQ = [18]½

QR = [(-1-4)2 + (6-9)2 + (6-6)^2]½

QR = [9+9+0]

QR = [18]½

PR = [(0+4)2 + (7-9)2 + (10-6)^2]½

PR = [16 + 4 + 16]½

PR = 6

As we can see that (PR)2 = (QR)2 + (PQ)2 

I.e. isoceles and right triangle
