Question

Please help me find the distance between the point (2,5) and (5,9)​

Answer 1

5 units

Explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 9)

d =
`√((5-2)^2+(9-5)^2)`

=
`√(3^2+4^2)`

=
`√(9+16)`

=
`√(25)`

= 5
