Question

find the distance between the point A(8,-2) and B(13,-6)

Answer 1

Distance Formula
$\sqrt{(x1 - x2) {}^{2} + (y1 - y2) {}^{2} }$
Point A(8,-2)
Point B(13,-6)
$\sqrt{(13 - 8) {}^{2} + ( - 6 - ( - 2))} \\ \sqrt{ {5}^{2} + ( - 4) {}^{2} } \\ \sqrt{25 + 16} \\ \sqrt{41} \: units$
Distance between them is √41 units

Answer 2

I have solved it using distance formula, i.e,

DISTANCE= √[(X2²-X1²) + (Y2²-Y1²)]
