Question

What is the distance between (7, -7) and (2,5) on the coordinate plane?

Answer 1

`\boxed{\sf{13}}`

Explanation:

The only way to solve this problem is to use the distance formula from left to right.

Distance formula:

`\sf{(X_1,Y_1)(X_2,Y_1)}`

`\sf{√(\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2)}`

y2=5

y1=(-7)

x2=2

x1=7

Solve the problem by rewriting it down.

`\sf{√(\left(2-7\right)^2+\left(5-\left(-7\right)\right)^2)}`

`\boxed{\sf{=13}}`

Therefore, the final answer is 13.
