Question

if the distance between a (- 4,- 3) and b (6,a) is 10 then find a​

Answer 1

Answer:

i am telling with another example.

Find the distance between (-1, 1) and (3, 4).

This problem is solved simply by plugging our x- and y-values into the distance formula:

D=(3−(−1))2+(4−1)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√=

=16+9−−−−−√=25−−√=5

Sometimes you need to find the point that is exactly between two other points. This middle point is called the "midpoint". By definition, a midpoint of a line segment is the point on that line segment that divides the segment in two congruent segments.

If the end points of a line segment is (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then the midpoint of the line segment has the coordinates:

(x1+x22,y1+y22)
