Find the distance between the pair of points. E(-2,5) and F(4,5)

1 Answer

Recall that to calculate the distance between two points (a,b) and (c,d) we use the formula


\sqrt[]{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}

In our case we have a=-2, b=5, c=4 and d=5. So we get


\sqrt[]{(4-(-2))^2+(5-5)^2}=\sqrt[]{6^2}=6

So the distance between both points is 6
