Question

Find the distance between (-3,0) and (-4,-3). Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

Answer 1

3.2

Explanation:

1)the formula for distance is

`\sqrt{(change \: in \: y) {}^(2) + (change \: in \: x) {}^(2) }`

2)

`\sqrt{ (- 3 - 0) {}^(2) + ( - 4 - ( - 3)) {}^(2) } = √(10) = 3.2 \: (1dp)`
