Question

What is the distance between the points (-7 , 24) and (7 , 24) in the coordinate plane?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

Given points are (-7,24) and (7,24) .

We can use the Distance Formula as ,

=> Distance = √{ (y2 - y1)² + (x2 - x2)²}

=> Distance = √{ (24-24)² + (-7-7)²}

=> Distance = √{ 0 + 14² }

=> Distance = √14²

=> Distance = 14 units .

Hence the required answer is 24 units.
