Question

Find the distance between the points (13,19) and (13,-14)

Answer 1

the distance between the two points is 33 units.

Explanation:

because the two points have the same x value, we only need to consider the y values.

find the difference to solve for the distance.

`19-(-14)\\19+14\\33`

the answer is 33 units.

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

`d = 33`

Explanation:

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

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

`d = √((13-13)^2+(-14-19)^2)`

`d = √((0)^2+(-33)^2)`

`d = √((-33)^2)`

`d = 33`
