Question

PLEASEEE HELP :)))

find the distance between J(664,22) and K(901, -138)
a. (118.5, 80)
b. (782.5, 58)
c. 263.87
d. 285.95

Answer 1

Answer: d. 285.95

Explanation:

The formula for calculating distance is given as :

d =
`\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1)^(2))+(y_(2)-y_(1)^(2) )}`

`x_(1)` = 664

`x_(2)` = 901

`y_(1)` = 22

`y_(2)` = - 138

Substituting the values into the formula , we have :

d =
`\sqrt{(901-664)^(2)+(-138-22)^(2)}`

d =
`\sqrt{(237)^(2)+(-160)^(2)}`

d =
`√(56169+25600)`

d =
`√(81769)`

d = 285.95
