Question

Find the distance between the two points: M(-8,-3) and N(-2,-5) . Please show steps also.

Answer 1

if joining of two points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2) is

√[x2 -x1]² + [y2-y1]²

given (x1, y1) =M(-8, -3) and (x2 ,y2) = N(-2,-5)

MN =√[-2 - (-8)]² + [-5 - (-3)]²

= √(-2+8)² + (-5+3)²
= √6²+(-2)²
= √36+4
=√40
distance betwee M and N = MN =2√10
