Question

Find the distance between the points (11, 4) and (10, 5). 1 2

Answer 1

distance formula : d = sqrt (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
(11,4)(10,5)

d = sqrt (10 - 11)^2 + (5 - 4)^2
d = sqrt (-1^2) + (1^2)
d = sqrt (1 + 1)
d = sqrt 2
d = 1.41 <===

Answer 2

Distance between the points is 1.41

Explanation:

Distance between two points (x, y) and (x', y') is represented by

d = √(x -x')² + (y-y')²

so the distance between the points (11, 4) and (10, 5) will be

d = √(11 - 10)² + (4 - 5)² = √(1)² +(-1)² = √2 = 1.41

Therefore distance between these two points is 1.41
