Question

Find the distance between the two points. (−6, −7), (0, 0)

Answer 1

d = √85

Explanation:

Here use the distance formula.

`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2) \\\text{Substitute the values.}\\d = √((0-(-6))^2+(0-(-7))^2)\\\text{Subtract by negative, which is adding.}\\d=√((6)^2+(7)^2)\\\text{Apply the powers of 2.}\\d=√(36+49)\\\text{Add.}\\d=√(85)`
