Question

What is the distance between the points (2, 3) and ( 4, 1) ? *​

Answer 1

Answer:

2(2)^(1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (2,3) be (x1,y1) and (4,1) be (x2,y2)

using distance formulae$\sqrt{ {(x1-x2)^2 +(y1-y2)^2 }$

[(2-4)^2 + (3-1)^2]^(1/2)

[ (-2)^2 + (2)^2 ]^(1/2)

[ 4+4 ]^(1/2)

[8]^(1/2)

2(2)^(1/2)

thus the distance between the points (2,3) and(4,1) is 2(2)^(1/2)

i hope this helps.
