Question

Question 2 (3 points) What is the length of the segment whose endpoints are A(2, -3) and B(10, 7)?

Answer 1

`d = √(164) = 12.8`

Explanation:

We can find the distance using the distance formula:

`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

We then substitute (2,-3) as
`(x_1,y_1)` and (10,7) as
`(x_2,y_2)`.

`d=√((10-2)^2+(7--3)^2) \\d=√((8)^2+(10)^2) \\d=√(64+100)\\d=√(164)=12.8`
