Question

The distance of the line segment with endpoints (0, -1) and (2, 0) is root 6. True or False

Answer 1

Given:

The points are (0, -1) and (2, 0).

To find:

The distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula,

`\begin{gathered} d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2) \\ d=√((2-0)^2+(0-(-1)^2) \\ d=√(2^2+1^2) \\ d=√(4+1) \\ d=√(5)units \end{gathered}`

So, the distance, square root of 6 is false.

Final answer: False
