Question

Find the distance between the points (7,9) and (1, 1).

Write your answer as a whole number or a fully simplified radical expression. Do not round.

____ Units

Answer 1

10 units







step by ste explanation:
the distance between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found by:

√(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

if you substitute the variables:
√(7 - 1)^2 + (9 - 1)^2 = √ 6^2 +8^2 = √100 = 10
