Answer 1

Distance between two points calculator, formula, work with steps, step by step ... Find the distance between two given points on a line? ... (8, 2) and (6, 1), 2.2361 ... (-12, 1) and (12, -1), 24.0832

Answer 2

The distance is 20 units

Explanation:

Both points are on the same y position but different x positions. This means that to find the distance between the points you have to find the distance between -8 and 12. the distance from 12 to 0 is 12 and from 0 to -8 is 8. If you add those 2 distances together you get 20 units.
