A quadrilateral is a shape with four vertices

The true statement about the quadrilateral ABCD is that the quadrilateral has unequal lengths

How to determine the true statement?

The coordinates of the vertices are given as:

A = (1,1)

B = (5,2)

C =  (8, -6)

D = (0, -8)

Next, we calculate the distance between the vertices using the following distance formula

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(1 -5)^2 + (1 -2)^2} = \sqrt{17}[/tex]

[tex]BC=\sqrt{(5 - 8)^2 + (2 +6)^2} = \sqrt{73}[/tex]

[tex]CD=\sqrt{(8 - 0)^2 + (-6 + 8)^2} = \sqrt{68}[/tex]

[tex]DA=\sqrt{(0 - 1)^2 + (-8 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{82}[/tex]

From the above computation, we have the lengths to be unequal

Hence, the true statement about the quadrilateral ABCD is that it has unequal lengths
