Question

Find the distance between (5.8) and (-2,3)

Answer 1

distance between the points is 8.602325267 units

Explanation:

(5 , 8)=(x1 , y1)

(-2 , 3)=(x2 , y2)

use formula:
`√((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)`

=
`√((-2-5)^2 + (3-8)^2)`

=
`√((-7)^2 + (-5)^2)`

=
`√(49 + 25)`

=
`\sqrt{74`

=8.602325267 units
