find the distance between each

between points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
D=[tex] \sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2} [/tex]



find and verify that
BC=CD=DE=EB

so
BC=[tex] \sqrt{(0-(-5))^2+(6-1)^2} [/tex]=5√2
CD=[tex] \sqrt{(5-0)^2+(1-6)^2} [/tex]=5√2
DE=[tex] \sqrt{(-4-1)^2+(0-5)^2} [/tex]=5√2
EB=[tex] \sqrt{(-5-0)^2+(1-(-4))^2} [/tex]=5√2

true
