Question 871119: Dear Math Tutor,
Please help me with: A quadrilateral ABCD is formed by points A(-3,2), B(4,3), C(9,-2) and D(2,-3)
(a) Show that all four sides are equal
(b) Show that ABCD is not a square
(a) I used the distance formula and worked outed that AB, BC,CD, DA are all equal to square root of 50, which makes this a rhombus but how do I prove that its not a square? slope maybe?
With Gratitude,
Nats

Check for AC & BD
they will not be equal if it is a rhombus
