Question

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form. I need helpp ASAP pleasee

Answer 1

`d=2√(17)`

Explanation:

Distance Formula:
`d=√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)`

Simply plug in your 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d:

`d=√((-9-(-7))^2+(-8-0)^2)`

`d=√((-9+7)^2+(-8)^2)`

`d=√((-2)^2+64)`

`d=√(4+64)`

`d=√(68)`

`d=2√(17)`
