Question

Point Q is located at (-4, 6). Point R is located at (8, 6).

What is the distance from point Q to point R?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hi there!

Given;

Point Q is located at (-4, 6). Point R is located at (8, 6).

Note: Use distance formula.

Now;

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

Keep all values;

`(d) = \sqrt{ {(8 + 4)}^(2) + ( {6 - 6)}^(2) }`

Simplify;

`(d) = \sqrt{( {12)}^(2) }`

Therefore, the distance is 12 units.

Hope it helps!
