Question

Use the distance formula to find the distance between each pair of points. (-1,4), (-4,-1)

Answer 1

a.

Explanation:

`d = \sqrt{( y _2 - y) {}^(2) + ( x_2 - x ) {}^(2) }`

`d = \sqrt{( - 1 - 4) {}^(2) + \sqrt{ - 4 + 1) {}^(2) } }`

`d = \sqrt{ - 5 {}^(2) +( - 3 {}^(2) )}`

`d = √(25 + 9)`

`d = √(34)`
