Question

let us calculate the distance between the two points (5,7) and (8,3)

Answer 1

Hiiii friend,

Let the given points are A(5,7) and B(8,3)


A(5,7) and B(8,3)

Here,


X1 = 5 , Y1 = 7 and X2 = 8 , Y2 = 3


By using distance formula, we have

AB² = (X2-X1)² + (Y2-Y1)²

AB² = (8-5)² + (3-7)²

AB² = (3)² + (-4)²

AB² = 9 +16


AB² = 25


AB = ✓25 = 5 units.



Hence,


Distance between the point A(5,7) and B(8,3) is 5 units.



HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU..... :-)

Answer 2

Answer:

d = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is based on coordinate geometry

The coordinates are given as ( 5,7) ; (8,3)

distance formula:

d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

d = √ (8-5)^2 + (3- 7)^2

d = √3^2 + (-4)^2

d = √ 9 + 16

d = √25

d = 5 units
