Question

Find the distance between the points (4, 0) and (–3, 4).

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{√(65)\approx8.062}`

Explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

We have two points (4, 0) and (-3, 4).

Substitute:

`d=√((-3-4)^2+(4-0)^2)=√((-7)^2+4^2)=√(49+16)=√(65)`
