Question

Distance formula
(3,0) (3,-3)

Answer 1

this is distance formula

Answer 2

The formula for distance between two points is:

`\sqrt{(x_(2) -x_(1))^(2) + (y_(2) -y_(1))^(2)}`

In this case:

`x_(2) =3\\x_(1) =3\\y_(2) =-3\\y_(1) =0`

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for distance like so...

`\sqrt{(3-3)^(2) + (-3-0)^(2)}`

To solve this you must use the rules of PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

First we have parentheses. Remember that when solving you must go from left to right

`\sqrt{(3-3)^(2) + (-3-0)^(2)}`

3 - 3 = 0

`\sqrt{(0)^(2) + (-3-0)^(2)}`

-3 - 0 = -3

`\sqrt{(0)^(2) + (-3)^(2)}`

Next solve the exponent. Again, you must do this from left to right

`\sqrt{(0)^(2) + (-3)^(2)}`

0² = 0

`\sqrt{0 + (-3)^(2)}`

(-3)² = 9

`√((0 + 9))`

Now for the addition

`√((0+9))`

0 + 9 = 9

√9 <<<This can be further simplified to:

3 units

***Remember that the above answers are in terms of units

Hope this helped!
