If you click on List(Stat), then go to Edit,
and make sure
L1 is (3,4,-4)
L2 is (4,-3,-1)
in that order, your graphing calculator will graph the points for you, other than this
D = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
(3,4) and (4,-3)
D = sqrt((4 - 3)^2 + (-3 - 4)^2)
D = sqrt(1^2 + (-3 + (-4))^2)
D = sqrt(1 + (-7)^2)
D = sqrt(1 + 49)
D = sqrt(50)
D = 5sqrt(2)
(4,-3) and (-4,-1)
D = sqrt((-4 - 4)^2 + (-1 - (-3))^2)
D = sqrt((-4 + (-4))^2 + 2^2)
D = sqrt((-8)^2 + 4)
D = sqrt(64 + 4)
D = sqrt(68)
D = 2sqrt(17)
(3,4) and (-4,-1)
D = sqrt((-4 - 3)^2 + (-1 - 4)^2)
D = sqrt((-7)^2 + (-5)^2)
D = sqrt(49 + 25)
D = sqrt(84)
D = 2sqrt(21)
As you can see, you have a scalene triangle.

draw a graph then plot the points and connect the dots =)

Polt the points on the graph and then joint together
