Question

Find the distance between the points (6,0) and (3,4).

Answer 1

5 units

Explanation:

We will calculate the distance between the two points using the formula to calculate distance.

The formula to calculate distance:


`d=√((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)`
Substitute and solve:

`d=√((3-6)^2+(4-0)^2)`

`(3-6)^2=-3^2`

`(4-0)^2=4^2`

`-3^2+4^2=9+16=25`

`√(25) =5*5`

`d=5`

Therefore the distance between the two points is "5 units".
