Question

Find the distance between the two points (-10,3) and (0,27)​

Answer 1

26 units

Explanation:

`\boxed{distance \: between \: 2 \: points = \sqrt{ {(x1 - x2)}^(2) + {(y1 - y2)}^(2) } }`

Using the formula above,

distance between (-10, 3) and (0, 27)

`= \sqrt{ {( - 10 - 0)}^(2) + {(3 - 27)}^(2) }`

`= \sqrt{ {10}^(2) + ( - 24) {}^(2) }`

`= √(100 + 576)`

`= √(676)`

= 26 units
