Vertices of a right triangle

Show that the points D(2,1), E(4,0), F(5,7) are vertices of a right triangle.

Correct result:

d =  0

Solution:

x1=2 y1=1 x2=4 y2=0 x3=5 y3=7  a=(x1−x2)2+(y1−y2)2=(2−4)2+(1−0)2=5≐2.2361  b=(x1−x3)2+(y1−y3)2=(2−5)2+(1−7)2=3 5≐6.7082  c=(x2−x3)2+(y2−y3)2=(4−5)2+(0−7)2=5 2≐7.0711  c2=a2+b2? d=c2−a2−b2=7.07112−2.23612−6.70822=0
