Question

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.
(8, -3)(6, -8)

Answer 1

29

Explanation:

29

Answer 2

sqrt(29)

Explanation:

distance = sqrt√( (x2 - x1)^ + (y2 - y1)^2 )

x1 = 6

x2 = 8

y1 = -8

y2 = -3

distance = sqrt( ( 8 - 6)^2 + (-3 - -8)^2 )

distance = sqrt( 2^2 + 5^2)

distance = sqrt(29)
