Question

If B is the midpoint between points A(1, 4) and C(3, 8). E is the midpoint between points D(3, -1) and F(5, 1) what is the approximate distance of BE?

Answer 1

Explanation:

coordinates of B are ,

x = 2 , y = 6

B( 2,6)

coordinates of E are,

x = 4 , y = 0

E(4,0)

Distance between the points B and E is

= √[(0-6)²+(4-2)²]

= √[36+4] = √(40) = 2√10
