Question

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary)

(3,2) and (6,0)

Answer 1

The distance between two points in the coordinate plane can be found using the distance formula, which is:

distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

In this case, the two points are (3,2) and (6,0), so we can plug in the values to get:

distance = √((6 - 3)^2 + (0 - 2)^2)

distance = √((3)^2 + (-2)^2)

distance = √(9 + 4)

distance = √13

So the distance between the two points (3,2) and (6,0) is approximately 3.61 units.
