4 It is given that \(A B C D\) is a quadrilateral. The position vector of \(A\) is \(\mathbf { i } + \mathbf { j }\), and the position vector of \(B\) is \(3 \mathbf { i } + 5 \mathbf { j }\).
  1. Find the length \(A B\).
  2. The position vector of \(C\) is \(p \mathbf { i } + p \mathbf { j }\) where \(p\) is a constant greater than 1 . Given that the length \(A B\) is equal to the length \(B C\), determine the position vector of \(C\).
  3. The point \(M\) is the midpoint of \(A C\). Given that \(\overrightarrow { M D } = 2 \overrightarrow { B M }\), determine the position vector of \(D\).
  4. State the name of the quadrilateral \(A B C D\), giving a reason for your answer.
