उत्तर
PQ = `sqrt((6 - 0)^2 + (2 + 4)^2) = 6sqrt(2)"units"`
QR = `sqrt((6 -3)^2 + (2 - 5)^2) = 3sqrt(2)"units"`
RS = `sqrt((3 +3)^2 + (5 + 1)^2) = 6sqrt(2)"units"`
PS = `sqrt((-3 - 0)^2 + (-1 + 4)^2) = 3sqrt(2)"units"`
PR = `sqrt((3 - 0)^2 + (5 + 4)^2) = 3sqrt(10)"units"`
QS = `sqrt((6 +3)^2 + (2 + 1)^2) = 3sqrt(10)"units"`
∵ PQ = RS and QR = PS,
Also PR = QS
∴ PQRS is a rectangle.

Find distance between point A(–1, 1) and point B(5, –7):
Solution: Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)
x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = –7
Using distance formula,
d(A, B) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square +[(-7) + square]^2`
∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(A, B) = `square`
