The distance between the point a 0,6 and b 0, - 2 is 8 units.
We know, if there are two points A and B, and their coordinates are represented as A (a,b) and B (c,d), then the distance between A and B is given as:
D = √[(c-a)² + (d-b)²]
Given in the question, a = 0, b = 6 and c = 0 and d = -2.
Thus the distance between the two points is calculated as:
D = √[(0-0)² + (-2-6)²]
= √[(0) + (-8)²]
= √64 = ±8
As distance cannot be in negative, so -8 is rejected and the distance becomes 8 units.
