If i=14xi2+yi22x1x3+2x2x4+2y2y3+2y1y4, the points x1,y1,x2,y2,x3y3,x4,y4 are 

a
the vertices of a rectangle
b
collinear
c
the vertices of a trapezium
d
none of these

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Let A≡x1,y1, B≡x2,y2, C≡x3,y3, D≡x4,y4given x12+x22+x32+x42+y12+y22+y32+y42−2x1x3−2x2x4−2y2y3−2y1y4≤0or x1−x32+x2−x42+y2−y32+y1−y42≤0or x1=x3,x2=x4, y2=y3, y1=y4or x1+x22=x3+x42 andy1+y22=y4+y32Hence, AB and CD bisect each other,Therefore, ACBD is a parallelogram. Also,AB2=x1−x22+y1−y22=x3−x42+y4−y32=CD2Thus, ACBD is a parallelogram and AB=CD.Hence, It is a rectangle.
