192. Name the type of triangle formed, if any, by the following points and give reason for your answer:

left parenthesis 1 comma space minus 1 right parenthesis comma space space open parentheses fraction numerator negative 1 over denominator 2 end fraction comma space 1 half close parentheses space left parenthesis 1 comma space 2 right parenthesis


Let the given points be straight A left parenthesis 1 comma space minus 1 right parenthesis comma space space straight B open parentheses negative 1 half comma space 1 half close parentheses space space and space straight C left parenthesis 1 comma space 2 right parenthesis space then

AB space equals space square root of open parentheses negative 1 half close parentheses squared plus open parentheses 1 half minus left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis close parentheses end root
rightwards double arrow space AB space equals space square root of open parentheses fraction numerator negative 1 minus 2 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses squared plus open parentheses fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 plus 1 end fraction 1 close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space AB space equals space square root of open parentheses fraction numerator negative 3 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses squared plus open parentheses 3 over 2 close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space AB space equals space square root of 9 over 4 plus 9 over 4 end root

BC space equals space square root of open curly brackets 1 minus open parentheses fraction numerator negative 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses close curly brackets squared plus open parentheses 2 minus 1 half close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space square root of open parentheses 1 plus 1 half close parentheses squared plus open parentheses 2 minus 1 half close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space square root of open parentheses 1 plus 1 half close parentheses squared plus open parentheses 2 minus 1 half close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space square root of open parentheses fraction numerator 2 plus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses squared plus open parentheses fraction numerator 4 minus 1 over denominator 2 end fraction close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space square root of open parentheses 3 over 2 close parentheses squared plus open parentheses 3 over 2 close parentheses squared end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space square root of 9 over 4 plus 9 over 4 end root
rightwards double arrow space BC space equals space 3 over 2 square root of 2
and space space AC space equals space square root of left parenthesis 1 minus 1 right parenthesis squared plus left curly bracket 2 minus left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis right curly bracket squared end root
rightwards double arrow space AC space equals space square root of 0 plus left parenthesis 2 plus 1 right parenthesis squared end root
rightwards double arrow space AC space equals space square root of 0 plus left parenthesis 3 right parenthesis squared end root
rightwards double arrow space AC space equals space square root of 9 space equals space 3

Since, AB = BC
So, the given points form an isosceles triangle.
