Question

Find the distance between the points (4,-2), (4,-5)

Answer 1

`\text{Given that,}\\\\(x_1,y_1) = (4,-2)~~ \text{and}~~ (x_2 ,y_2) = (4,-5)\\\\\text{Distance} = √((x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=√((4-4)^2 + (-5+2)^2)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=√(0^2+(-3)^2)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=√(0+9)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=\sqrt 9\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~=3`
