Question

the distance between two points (-5,7) and (-1,3)

Answer 1

Distance between two points formula

$\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$x_1 = -5 \: x_2 = -1 \: y_1 = 7 \: y_2 = 3$

Substituting the values in the formula

$\sqrt{(-1-(-5))^2+(3-7)^2}$

$\sqrt {(4)^2+(-4)^2}$

$\sqrt{(16)+(16)}$

$\sqrt{32}$
