Question

Find the distance between (0,3) and (0,-6)

Answer 1

Answer: 9

Explanation:

let the two points P (0,3) and Q(0,-6)

We need to find distance PQ

PQ=
`√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)`

here

x1=x coordinate of P=0

y1=y coordinate of P=3

x2=x coordinate of Q=0

y2=y coordinate of Q=-6

Putting values

`PQ=√((0-0)^2+(-6-3)^2)\\`
`PQ=√((0)^2+(-9)^2) \\PQ=√(81) \\PQ=9`

Answer 2

the answer should be 9

Explanation:

,look at a graph count from 0,-6 up to 0,3 . the distance between them is 9
