Question

1. Find the distance between the following pairs of points.
(a-b) and (c-b)​

Answer 1

Answer:

a+c and c-a

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is d = $\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2 + (x_2-x_1)^2 }$

If we substitute the following points in, we get d = $\sqrt{(-b-(-b))^2 + (a-c)^2} = \sqrt{(a-c)^2}$

Now we get +- (a-c)

This gives two values, a-c and c-a
