You can distance the 3 sides and find out.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

you should label each plotting point with a letter to less confuse yourself

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

once you do that remember: isosceles: 2 equal lengths, one different equilateral: all 3 are the same

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Tell me what you get when you finished distancing the points :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its isosceles?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Well what did you get for the distances?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Consider points 3,4=A 7,0=B 2,-1=c find the distance of AB, BC, CA

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

If you used the formula... SIDE AB=the square root of 32 SIDE BC=the square root of 26 SIDE CA= the square root of 26

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

This makes the triangle _____?
