Question

Use the Distance Formula to find the distance between points 1 and 2 on the coordinate plane, rounded to the nearest tenth unit.

Point 1: (0, 80)
Point 2: (95,5)

Answer 1

`\sf d = 121.0`

given:

• Point 1: (0, 80)

• Point 2: (95,5)

distance between two points formula:

`\sf d = √((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2)`

using the formula:

`\sf d = √((95 - 0)^2 + (5-80)^2)`

`\sf d = √(9025 + 5625)`

`\sf d = √(14650)`

`\sf d = 5√(586)`

`\sf d = 121.0`
