Answer:


AB = 10 units

Explanation:

The line of segment AB can be calculated using distance formula,
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) , to calculate the distance between point A(6, 2) and point B(0, 10).

A(6, 2) can be (x1, y1),

B(0, 10) can be (x2, y2)


d = √((0 - 6)^2 + (10 - 2)^2)


d = √((-6)^2 + (8)^2)


d = √(36 + 64)


d = √(100)


d = 10
