Question

To the nearest tenth, find the approximate distance between points A and C. Graph with coordinates A negative 4, negative 4. B negative 2, 5. C 2, 1. D 2, negative 4.

A. 3.3 units
B. 7.8 units
C. 5.2 units
D. 3.6 units

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Answer 1

we have that
A(-4,-4) B(-2,5) C(2,1) D(2,-4)

step 1
find the distance AC with the formula
d=√[(y2-y1)²+(x2-x1)²]------> dAC=√[(1+4)²+(2+4)²]----> dAC=√61 units
dAC=√61-----> dAC=7.8 units

the answer is
the option
B. 7.8 units
