Explanation:

Step1: Find the lengths of sides

To find the lengths of the sides of the quadrilateral, we use the distance formula $d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$.

For $AB$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = -7, x_2 = 9, y_2 = -4$
$AB = \sqrt{(9 - 11)^2 + (-4 - (-7))^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $BC$:
$x_1 = 9, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = -1$
$BC = \sqrt{(11 - 9)^2 + (-1 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $CD$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = -1, x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$
$CD = \sqrt{(13 - 11)^2 + (-4 - (-1))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (-3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $DA$:
$x_1 = 13, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = -7$
$DA = \sqrt{(11 - 13)^2 + (-7 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

So all sides $AB = BC = CD = DA = \sqrt{13}$, so it is a rhombus (since all sides are equal). Now check the slopes to see if adjacent sides are perpendicular.

Step2: Find the slopes of sides

The slope formula is $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$.

Slope of $AB$:
$m_{AB} = \frac{-4 - (-7)}{9 - 11} = \frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $BC$:
$m_{BC} = \frac{-1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{3}{2}$

The product of slopes of $AB$ and $BC$ is $(-\frac{3}{2}) \times (\frac{3}{2}) = -\frac{9}{4}
eq -1$, so adjacent sides are not perpendicular. So quadrilateral $ABCD$ is a rhombus with nonperpendicular adjacent sides.

Now, when $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$:

Step3: Find lengths for new quadrilateral

For $AB$: same as before, $AB = \sqrt{13}$

For $BC'$:
$x_1 = 9, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = 1$
$BC' = \sqrt{(11 - 9)^2 + (1 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

For $C'D$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = 1, x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$
$C'D = \sqrt{(13 - 11)^2 + (-4 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (-5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

For $DA$: same as before, $DA = \sqrt{13}$

Now check slopes:

Slope of $AB$: $-\frac{3}{2}$ (same as before)

Slope of $BC'$:
$m_{BC'} = \frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$:
$m_{C'D} = \frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$

Slope of $DA$: same as before, $-\frac{3}{2}$ (wait, no, slope of $DA$: from $D(13, -4)$ to $A(11, -7)$: $m_{DA} = \frac{-7 - (-4)}{11 - 13} = \frac{-3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2}$

Wait, maybe better to check if it's a parallelogram. Check if opposite sides are equal and parallel.

Slope of $AB$: $-\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$: $\frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$? Wait, no, earlier calculation for $C'D$ slope was wrong. Let's recalculate slope of $C'D$: $x_1 = 11, y_1 = 1$; $x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$. So $m_{C'D} = \frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$. Slope of $AB$ is $-\frac{3}{2}$, not equal. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Let's check slope of $AD$: from $A(11, -7)$ to $D(13, -4)$: $m_{AD} = \frac{-4 - (-7)}{13 - 11} = \frac{3}{2}$. Slope of $BC'$: from $B(9, -4)$ to $C'(11, 1)$: $m_{BC'} = \frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$. Hmm, maybe better to check midpoints.

Midpoint of $AC$ (original) was $(\frac{11 + 11}{2}, \frac{-7 + (-1)}{2}) = (11, -4)$, which is the same as midpoint of $BD$: $(\frac{9 + 13}{2}, \frac{-4 + (-4)}{2}) = (11, -4)$. So it was a parallelogram (since diagonals bisect each other). When $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$, midpoint of $AC'$ is $(\frac{11 + 11}{2}, \frac{-7 + 1}{2}) = (11, -3)$, midpoint of $BD$ is still $(11, -4)$. Wait, no, that can't be. Wait, maybe my initial approach was wrong. Let's check coordinates:

Original points: $A(11, -7)$, $B(9, -4)$, $C(11, -1)$, $D(13, -4)$. So $A$ and $C$ have same $x$-coordinate (11), so $AC$ is vertical. $B$ and $D$ have same $y$-coordinate (-4), so $BD$ is horizontal. So $AC$ and $BD…

Answer:

Step1: Find the lengths of sides

To find the lengths of the sides of the quadrilateral, we use the distance formula $d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$.

For $AB$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = -7, x_2 = 9, y_2 = -4$
$AB = \sqrt{(9 - 11)^2 + (-4 - (-7))^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $BC$:
$x_1 = 9, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = -1$
$BC = \sqrt{(11 - 9)^2 + (-1 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $CD$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = -1, x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$
$CD = \sqrt{(13 - 11)^2 + (-4 - (-1))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (-3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

For $DA$:
$x_1 = 13, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = -7$
$DA = \sqrt{(11 - 13)^2 + (-7 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$

So all sides $AB = BC = CD = DA = \sqrt{13}$, so it is a rhombus (since all sides are equal). Now check the slopes to see if adjacent sides are perpendicular.

Step2: Find the slopes of sides

The slope formula is $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$.

Slope of $AB$:
$m_{AB} = \frac{-4 - (-7)}{9 - 11} = \frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $BC$:
$m_{BC} = \frac{-1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{3}{2}$

The product of slopes of $AB$ and $BC$ is $(-\frac{3}{2}) \times (\frac{3}{2}) = -\frac{9}{4}
eq -1$, so adjacent sides are not perpendicular. So quadrilateral $ABCD$ is a rhombus with nonperpendicular adjacent sides.

Now, when $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$:

Step3: Find lengths for new quadrilateral

For $AB$: same as before, $AB = \sqrt{13}$

For $BC'$:
$x_1 = 9, y_1 = -4, x_2 = 11, y_2 = 1$
$BC' = \sqrt{(11 - 9)^2 + (1 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

For $C'D$:
$x_1 = 11, y_1 = 1, x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$
$C'D = \sqrt{(13 - 11)^2 + (-4 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (-5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

For $DA$: same as before, $DA = \sqrt{13}$

Now check slopes:

Slope of $AB$: $-\frac{3}{2}$ (same as before)

Slope of $BC'$:
$m_{BC'} = \frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$:
$m_{C'D} = \frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$

Slope of $DA$: same as before, $-\frac{3}{2}$ (wait, no, slope of $DA$: from $D(13, -4)$ to $A(11, -7)$: $m_{DA} = \frac{-7 - (-4)}{11 - 13} = \frac{-3}{-2} = \frac{3}{2}$

Wait, maybe better to check if it's a parallelogram. Check if opposite sides are equal and parallel.

Slope of $AB$: $-\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$: $\frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$? Wait, no, earlier calculation for $C'D$ slope was wrong. Let's recalculate slope of $C'D$: $x_1 = 11, y_1 = 1$; $x_2 = 13, y_2 = -4$. So $m_{C'D} = \frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$. Slope of $AB$ is $-\frac{3}{2}$, not equal. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Let's check slope of $AD$: from $A(11, -7)$ to $D(13, -4)$: $m_{AD} = \frac{-4 - (-7)}{13 - 11} = \frac{3}{2}$. Slope of $BC'$: from $B(9, -4)$ to $C'(11, 1)$: $m_{BC'} = \frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$. Hmm, maybe better to check midpoints.

Midpoint of $AC$ (original) was $(\frac{11 + 11}{2}, \frac{-7 + (-1)}{2}) = (11, -4)$, which is the same as midpoint of $BD$: $(\frac{9 + 13}{2}, \frac{-4 + (-4)}{2}) = (11, -4)$. So it was a parallelogram (since diagonals bisect each other). When $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$, midpoint of $AC'$ is $(\frac{11 + 11}{2}, \frac{-7 + 1}{2}) = (11, -3)$, midpoint of $BD$ is still $(11, -4)$. Wait, no, that can't be. Wait, maybe my initial approach was wrong. Let's check coordinates:

Original points: $A(11, -7)$, $B(9, -4)$, $C(11, -1)$, $D(13, -4)$. So $A$ and $C$ have same $x$-coordinate (11), so $AC$ is vertical. $B$ and $D$ have same $y$-coordinate (-4), so $BD$ is horizontal. So $AC$ and $BD$ are perpendicular bisectors? $AC$ length: from $y=-7$ to $y=-1$, length 6. $BD$ length: from $x=9$ to $x=13$, length 4. Wait, no, $AC$ is vertical: length is $|-1 - (-7)| = 6$. $BD$ is horizontal: length is $|13 - 9| = 4$. Wait, but earlier distance formula for $AB$ was $\sqrt{13}$, which is correct. Wait, maybe the quadrilateral is a kite? No, in original, all sides are equal? Wait, no, $AB$: distance between (11,-7) and (9,-4): $\sqrt{(9-11)^2 + (-4+7)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$. $BC$: (9,-4) to (11,-1): $\sqrt{(11-9)^2 + (-1+4)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$. $CD$: (11,-1) to (13,-4): $\sqrt{(13-11)^2 + (-4+1)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$. $DA$: (13,-4) to (11,-7): $\sqrt{(11-13)^2 + (-7+4)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 9} = \sqrt{13}$. So all sides equal. And $AC$ is vertical (x=11, from y=-7 to y=-1), length 6. $BD$ is horizontal (y=-4, from x=9 to x=13), length 4. So diagonals are perpendicular? Slope of $AC$: vertical line, undefined slope. Slope of $BD$: horizontal line, slope 0. So diagonals are perpendicular. Wait, but earlier product of slopes of $AB$ and $BC$ was $-\frac{9}{4}$, but diagonals are perpendicular. Wait, maybe it's a rhombus (all sides equal, diagonals perpendicular). Wait, my mistake earlier: slope of $AC$ is undefined (vertical), slope of $BD$ is 0 (horizontal), so they are perpendicular. So diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular. So maybe my slope calculation for sides was wrong. Wait, $AB$: from (11,-7) to (9,-4): change in x: -2, change in y: +3. So slope is $\frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2}$. $BC$: from (9,-4) to (11,-1): change in x: +2, change in y: +3. Slope is $\frac{3}{2}$. The product of slopes of $AB$ and $BC$ is $-\frac{9}{4}$, but diagonals are perpendicular. Wait, in a rhombus, diagonals are perpendicular, but adjacent sides may not be? No, in a rhombus, adjacent sides are not necessarily perpendicular (only in a square). So original quadrilateral $ABCD$: all sides equal, diagonals perpendicular (since one is vertical, one is horizontal), so it's a rhombus with nonperpendicular adjacent sides (since product of slopes of sides is not -1).

Now, when $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$:

$A(11, -7)$, $B(9, -4)$, $C'(11, 1)$, $D(13, -4)$

Check midpoints: midpoint of $AC'$: $(\frac{11+11}{2}, \frac{-7 + 1}{2}) = (11, -3)$

Midpoint of $BD$: $(\frac{9 + 13}{2}, \frac{-4 + -4}{2}) = (11, -4)$

Not the same, so not a parallelogram? Wait, no, maybe check slopes of opposite sides.

Slope of $AB$: $\frac{-4 - (-7)}{9 - 11} = \frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$: $\frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$ → not equal to slope of $AB$

Slope of $BC'$: $\frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$

Slope of $AD$: $\frac{-4 - (-7)}{13 - 11} = \frac{3}{2}$ → not equal to slope of $BC'$

Wait, maybe I made a mistake in the first part. Let's re-express the coordinates:

$A(11, -7)$, $B(9, -4)$, $C(11, -1)$, $D(13, -4)$

Plotting these points:

  • $A$ and $C$ are on $x=11$, so vertical line. $A$ is (11,-7), $C$ is (11,-1) → length 6.
  • $B$ and $D$ are on $y=-4$, so horizontal line. $B$ is (9,-4), $D$ is (13,-4) → length 4.

So $AC$ and $BD$ are perpendicular (vertical and horizontal), intersecting at (11, -4) (midpoint of $BD$ and point on $AC$). So $AC$ is bisected by $BD$ (since (11,-4) is the midpoint of $AC$? Wait, $AC$ is from (11,-7) to (11,-1), midpoint is (11, -4), which is the same as midpoint of $BD$ ( (9+13)/2=11, (-4 + -4)/2=-4 ). So diagonals bisect each other. Therefore, $ABCD$ is a parallelogram (since diagonals bisect each other). And since all sides are equal (as calculated before), it's a rhombus. Wait, but in a parallelogram with all sides equal, it's a rhombus. So original $ABCD$ is a rhombus (parallelogram with all sides equal) with nonperpendicular adjacent sides (since diagonals are perpendicular, but sides are not).

Now, when $C$ is shifted to $C'(11, 1)$:

$A(11, -7)$, $B(9, -4)$, $C'(11, 1)$, $D(13, -4)$

Check lengths:

$AB$: $\sqrt{13}$ (same as before)

$BC'$: $\sqrt{(11-9)^2 + (1 - (-4))^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

$C'D$: $\sqrt{(13-11)^2 + (-4 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

$DA$: $\sqrt{13}$ (same as before)

So $AB = DA = \sqrt{13}$, $BC' = C'D = \sqrt{29}$. So opposite sides are equal. Now check slopes:

Slope of $AB$: $-\frac{3}{2}$

Slope of $C'D$: $\frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$ → Wait, no, slope of $C'D$: from $C'(11,1)$ to $D(13,-4)$: $\frac{-4 - 1}{13 - 11} = \frac{-5}{2}$. Slope of $AB$ is $-\frac{3}{2}$, not equal. Wait, slope of $BC'$: from $B(9,-4)$ to $C'(11,1)$: $\frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$

Slope of $AD$: from $A(11,-7)$ to $D(13,-4)$: $\frac{-4 - (-7)}{13 - 11} = \frac{3}{2}$

Ah, here's the mistake: slope of $AD$ is $\frac{3}{2}$, slope of $BC'$ is $\frac{5}{2}$ → not equal. Wait, but lengths of $AB$ and $CD$ (now $C'D$) are equal? No, $AB = \sqrt{13}$, $C'D = \sqrt{29}$. Wait, no, $AB$ and $C'D$: $AB = \sqrt{13}$, $C'D = \sqrt{29}$ → not equal. Wait, $AB$ and $C'D$ are not opposite sides. Opposite sides are $AB$ and $C'D$? No, in quadrilateral $ABC'D$, the sides are $AB$, $BC'$, $C'D$, $DA$. So opposite sides are $AB$ and $C'D$, $BC'$ and $DA$.

Length of $AB$: $\sqrt{13}$, length of $C'D$: $\sqrt{29}$ → not equal.

Length of $BC'$: $\sqrt{29}$, length of $DA$: $\sqrt{13}$ → not equal.

Wait, this can't be. Maybe I messed up the quadrilateral order. The quadrilateral is $A(11,-7)$, $B(9,-4)$, $C(11,-1)$, $D(13,-4)$. So the order is $A-B-C-D-A$. So when $C$ is shifted to $C'$, the order is $A-B-C'-D-A$.

So sides: $AB$, $BC'$, $C'D$, $DA$.

Let's recalculate slopes:

$AB$: $A(11,-7)$ to $B(9,-4)$: slope $m_{AB} = \frac{-4 - (-7)}{9 - 11} = \frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2}$

$BC'$: $B(9,-4)$ to $C'(11,1)$: slope $m_{BC'} = \frac{1 - (-4)}{11 - 9} = \frac{5}{2}$

$C'D$: $C'(11,1)$
