Answer: 10.2956
Explanation:
Input Data :
Point 1 ( x A , y A ) = (7, -1)
Point 2 ( x B , y B ) = (-2, 4)
Objective :
Find the distance between two given points on a line?
Formula :
Distance between two points = √ ( x B − x A )2 + ( y B − y A ) 2
Solution :
Distance between two points = √ ( − 2 − 7 ) 2 + ( 4 − − 1 ) 2 = √ ( − 9 ) 2 + 5 2
= √ 81 + 25
= √ 106 = 10.2956
Distance between points (7, -1) and (-2, 4) is 10.2956
