Question

Distance between points 4,6 8,9 to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

The distance between (4,6) and (8,9) is 5 units

Explanation:

The given points are:

(4,6) and (8,9)

The distance formula is used to calculate distance between two points

`d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^(2)+(y_2-y_1)^(2) } \\Putting\ the\ points\\d = \sqrt{(8-4)^(2)+(9-6)^(2) }\\ = \sqrt{(4)^(2)+(3)^(2) }\\=√(16+9)\\=√(25)\\=5\ units`

Therefore the distance between (4,6) and (8,9) is 5 units ..
