Question

find the distance betweeen the points L(5,-8) and M(-7,-3)​

Answer 1

Given:-

• L(5,-8)
• M(-7,-3)

where,

$x_{1} = 5$

$x_{2} = - 7$

$y_{1} = - 8$

$y_{2} = - 3$

To Find:-

the distance betweeen the points L(5,-8) and M(-7,-3)

Solution:-

To Find the Distance between 2 points then we will use Distance formula

√[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²]

substituting the values

√[( - 7 - 5)^{2} + ( - 8 + 3)^{2}]

$= > \sqrt{ { - 12}^{2} + { - 5}^{2} }$

$= > \sqrt{144 + 25}$

$= > \sqrt{169}$

$= > 13$

Hence,

the Distance between the points L(5,-8) and M(-7,-3). is 13 sq. units
