Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.
(-5, 8) (-3, 1)

Answer 1

`√(53)`

Explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d =
`\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^2+(y_(2)-y_(1))^2 }`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 1)

d =
`√((-3+5)^2+(1-8)^2)`

=
`√(2^2+(-7)^2)`

=
`√(4+49)`

=
`√(53)`
