Question

Find the distance between point P(3, 2) and Q(2,4). Round your answer to the nearest tenth (1 number behind the decimal).

Answer 1

Answer:

2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

formula of distance between two points

d = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

here

x1 = 3, x2 = 2

y1 = 2 , y2 =4

then,

d = √ (2 - 3)^2 + (4-2)^2

=√ (-1)^2 + (2)^2

=√ 1 + 4

=√5

=2.23

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

using the formula for the distance between 2 points which is

√(X2-X1)²+(Y2-Y1)²

points are P(3,2) and Q(2,4)

X1= 3. Y1=2

X2= 2. Y2=4

=√(2-3)²+(4-2)²

=√(1)²+(2)²

=√1+4

= √5

= 2.2 or 2
