Question

using distance formula what is the distance between points (7,8) &(5,_4) round to the nearest tenth​

Answer 1

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

`\sqrt{ {(5 - 7)}^(2) + {( - 4 - 8)}^(2) }`

`\sqrt{ {( - 2)}^(2) + {( - 12)}^(2) }`

`√(4 + 144)`

`√(148)`

`2 √(37)`

the nearest 10 place is 10.

hence the distance is 10 units
