Question

Find the distance between the points (0, 0) and (6, -8).
4
√28
10

Answer 1

Answer: The distance between the points (0, 0) and (6, -8). is 10

Answer 2

10, imagine a line going through those 2 points. make that point into a hypotenuse of a right triangle. The length of the triangle is 6 and the height is 8 because the 6-0=6 (x values) and -8-0=-8 (y values). so use pythagorean theorem

`{6}^(2) + {8}^(2) = {z}^(2) \\ z= 10`
