Question

Gment

What is the length of segment TS?
O 5 units
O 6 units
10 units
12 units

Answer 1

Answer: D) 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 spaces between T and S.

You can count the spaces out, or subtract and use absolute value.

You could use the distance formula, but it's a bit overkill in this situation. The distance formula is only ever needed whenever we don't have horizontal or vertical line segments.

Edit: The solution has been corrected to the correct value.
