Question

Find the distance between the points (0,-8) and (8,-3). The answer must be a whole number or a fully simplified radical expression do not round up

Answer 1

The distance in radical expression form is d=
`√(89)`

Explanation:

`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)\\d=√((8-0)^2+(-3-(-8))^2)\\d=√((8)^2+(5)^2)\\d=√((64)+(25))\\d=√(89)\\`
