Question

Find the distance between the points (15, -11) and (15, -19).

Answer 1

8 units

Explanation:

the easiest way to work out the distance for these two points is to plot them on a linear graph. as they are in line (because they're both inline with 15 on the x-axis), you just have to count the numbers between -11 and -19. in this case there are 8 units between the two points.

I hope this was helpful :-)

Answer 2

Answer: 8

Explanation:

Distance formula: square root x2-x1 squared + y2-y1 squared.

15-15=0

0 squared=0

-19- -11= -8

-8 squared=64

Square root 64= 8
