Question

Plot the points A(-2,3) B(-2,0), C(2,0) and D(2,6) on the graph paper. Join them consecutively. Find the lengths of AC and AD

Answer 1

you can also find using the distance formula i,e√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²   then here u have find length of ac and  ad.so here in AC X2=2 ,X1=-2 AND Y2=0,Y1=3 SO ,

AC=√[2-(-2)]²+(0-3)²}    THEN =√(2+2)²+(-3)²           =√16+9 =√25= 5 CM                              THEN HERE IN AD  X2=2,X1=-2 AND Y2=6,Y1=3                                  

AD=√[2-(-2²)+(6-3)² ]       THEN =√(2+2)²+(3)²         =√16+9=√25 = 5 CM

Answer 2

Answer: refer the ans.

Step-by-step explanation:

By Distance formula we have,

AC²= (-2-2)²+ (3-0)² = 16+9 = 25

=> AC =  

=> AC = 5 units.

Similarly,

AD²= (-2-2)²+(3-6)²= 16+9 = 25

=> AD =  

=> AD = 5 units.
