[tex]A(-1,3,4) , B(3,-1,1,),C(5,1,1) \\ \\d(A,B)= \sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(3-(-1))^2+(4-1)^2}= \sqrt{16+16+9}= \sqrt{41} \\ \\d(B,C)= \sqrt{(3-5)^2+(-1-1)^2+(1-1)^2}= \sqrt{4+4+0}= \sqrt{8} \\ \\d(A,C)= \sqrt{(-1-5)^2+(3-1)^2+(4-1)^2}= \sqrt{36+4+9} = \sqrt{49} \\ \\AC^2=AB^2+BC^2 \\ \\ \sqrt{49}^2=\sqrt{41}^2+\sqrt{8}^2 \\ \\49 =41+8 \\ \\49=49[/tex]
