Question

M(-5,2) and N(5,2) are the endpoints of the sedment MN on the cordinate plane what is the length of MN

Answer 1

10 units

Explanation:

Given data

The points are

M(-5,2) and N(5,2)

x1=-5

y1= 2

x2=5

y2= 2

The expression for the distance between two points is

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

substitute

d=√((5-(-5))²+(2-2)²)

d=√10²+0²

d=√100

d=10

Hence the distance is 10 units
