Detailed Solution

We have been given,
If A(3, 4) and D(1, -1) are the angular points on the opposing sides of a square, then the remaining angular points coordinates are B= 9 2 , 1 2 ,C= 1 2 , 5 2 .
Using the distance formula, D=x2-x12+y2-y12 We know, according to Pythagorean theorem if ΔABC is a right angled triangle and B is the right angle then,
A B 2 +B C 2 =A C 2
Question ImageCurrently, the angles of a square's diagonals are,
(3,4) and (1,1) Hence,
A= 3,4 ,C= 1,1 Let the coordinates of B be,
x,y   Since it is a square,
Therefore,
AB=BC=CD=DA Now, AB=BC For AB, substituting x2=x, x1=3, y2=y, and y1=4, in the formula,
For BC, substituting x2=1, x1=x, y2=y, and y1=(-1), in the formula,
AB=BC
(x-3)2+(y-4)2=(1-x)2+(y-(-1))2
x2-6x+9+y2-8y+16=1-2x+x2+y2+2y+1
4x+10y=23
x=23-10y4
Question Image  Now put x= 2310y 4 Question Image  Hence Point B= 9 2 , 1 2  and point C= 1 2 , 5 2
Therefore, our statement is true.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
