Question

What is the length of line segment PQ shown below?

Answer 1

I think the answer is (-8,-6) I’m not sure sorry

Answer 2

The length of the line segment PQ is 10 units.

How the length of the line PQ.

Given

Points P(0,1) and Q(8,7):

The length of a line segment between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by the distance formula:

d is the distance between the points

`d = \sqrt{ ({x2 - x1)}^(2) + {(y2 - y1)}^(2) }`

`d = \sqrt{ {(8 - 0)}^(2) + {(7 - 1)}^(2) }`

`= √(64 + 36)`

`= √(100)`

= 10 units

So, the length of the line segment PQ is 10 units.
