Question

What is the distance between (4, 4) and (-2, 5)?

Answer 1

`√(37)`

Explanation:

Distance formula is
`\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^(2) + (y2 - y1)^(2)}`

Plug it in

`\sqrt{(-6)^(2) + (1)^(2) }`

Simplify

`√(36 + 1)`

Solve

`√(37)`

BOOM.

Answer 2

√37

Explanation:

You can use the distance formula:

√(4 - 5)^2 + (4 + 2)^2

√1 + 36

√37
