To show: The set of vertices
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The set of vertices
Formula used:
Distance
Calculation:
Consider the provided set of vertices
It is known that in an isosceles triangle any two sides are equal.
Compute the length of sides of the triangle
Recall that the distance
Evaluate the distance between
Next evaluate the distance between
Evaluate the distance between
Observe that
That is the distance between the point
That is two sides of triangle are of equal length.
Therefore, triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Hence, it is shown that the set of vertices
