Answer:

The length of AD is
√(13)\ units

Explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to


d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^(2)+(x2-x1)^(2)}

we have


A(2,4)\\B(0,1)

substitute the values


d=\sqrt{(1-4)^(2)+(0-2)^(2)}


d=\sqrt{(-3)^(2)+(-2)^(2)}


dAD=√(13)\ units
