Question

Distance between (-4,6) and (-1,9)

Answer 1

3,3

Explanation:

absolute both values

|-4,6|=4,6

|-1,9|=1,9

4-1=3

9-6=3

3,3

Answer 2

d = 3 sqrt(2)

Explanation:

To find the distance between two points we can use the formula

d = sqrt( (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)

d = sqrt( ( -1 - -4) ^2 + (9-6)^2)

d = sqrt( (-1+4)^2 + 3^2)

d = sqrt( 3^2+3^2)

d = sqrt(9+9)

d = sqrt(18)

Simplifying

d = sqrt(9*2)

d = 3 sqrt(2)
