Question

Onsider the following pair of points.

(0,−10)
and (1,−3)
Step 1 of 2 : Determine the distance between the two points.

Answer 1

Explanation:

For this kind of problem, all you need to know is one formula:

The Distance Formula

`D = √((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

in this case,

`x_2=1`,
`x_1=0`,
`y_2=-3`,
`y_1=-10`

`D = √((1-0)^2+(-3--10)^2)`

`D = √(1^2+7^2)\\D = √(1+49)`

`D = √(50)\\D = √(25*2) D = 5√(2)`
