Question

Which equation correctly shows how to determine the distance between the points (9, -2) and (6,3) on a coordinate grid?

Answer 1

5,83

Explanation:

AC = 3-(-2) = 5

BC = 9 - 6 = 3

AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2

AB^2 = 5^2 + 3^2

AB^2 = 25 + 9

AB^2 = 34

AB = sqrt(34)

AB = 5,83

Done :))

Answer 2

Explanation:

d = sqrt ((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)......this is ur equation

(9,-2)....x1 = 9 and y1= -2

(6,3)....x2 = 6 and y2 = 3

d = sqrt ((6 - 9)^2 + (3 - (-2)^2)

d = sqrt ((-3^2) + (5^2))

d = sqrt (9 + 25)

d = sqrt (34)

d = 5.83
