Question

Find the distance between
(3,4) and (-5,7).

Answer 1

Hey!

------------------------------------------

Formula:
`\sqrt{(x2 - x1) + (y2 - y1)^(2) }`

------------------------------------------

Solution:

`= \sqrt{(-5 - 3) + (7 - 4)^(2) }`

`= \sqrt{(-8) + (3)^(2) }`

`= \sqrt{-5^(2) }`

`= √(-25)`

= 5

------------------------------------------

Answer:

The distance between both points is 5 units.
