Question 1173692
.
Quadrilateral KLMN has vertices K(2,3), L(7,3), M(4,7), and N (-1,7). Prove by means of coordinate geometry that KLMN is a rhombus.

<pre>
Looking at the coordinates of points, you may see that 


    - the segment KL is horizontal  (y= 3)  having the length of 7-2 = 5;

    - the segment MN is horizontal  (y= 7)  having the length of 4-(-1) = 5.


It is just enough to conclude that the quadrilateral KLMN is a parallelogram.


Next, the length of the segment  KN is  {{{sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)}}} = {{{sqrt(25)}}} = 5  and is equal to that of segment KL.


It is just enough to conclude that the parallelogram KLMN  is a rhombus.
