Question

O IfP(-6,-3) and Q (-1,9), then complete the

following activity to find PQ.

Activity: Let P(x, y) and Q(x2, y). x = -6, y = -3, x2 = -1, y = 9

(x2 - x)) =[(-1) - (-6)] =

(y2 – Y1)' =[(9) –(-3)] =

PQ =V

. (1

(Distance formula)

PQ = V 25 + 144 [From (1) and (2)]

PQ = V 169 =

.. PQ =​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the Points P(-6,-3) and Q(-1,9) be P(x₁,y₁) and Q(x₂, y₂) respectively. Hence, the Distance between the two points is 13 units.
