Question

x1=-4, y1=4; x2=4, y2=2. show how to calculate distance between the two points.​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sqrt{68} \: \: units$

Step-by-step explanation:

distance is given by

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

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

$= \sqrt{ { - 8}^{2} + {2}^{2} }$

$= \sqrt{68}$
