Question

(iii) A relation between a and b such that point (a,b) isequidistant from the points (8,3) and (2,7)​

Answer 1

7.21 units

Explanation:

GIven data

Point 1= (8,3)

x1= 8

y1= 3

Point 2= (2,7)​

x2= 2

y2= 7

The expression for the distance between two points is given as

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

substitute

d=√((2-8)²+(7-3)²)

d=√((-6)²+(4)²)

d=√36+16

d=√52

d= 7.21

Hence the distance between the points is 7.21 units
