Question

(1, 3) and (5,3)
Calculate the distance between the given points

Answer 1

Answer: The distance is 4.

Explanation:

The distance will be the diffrence in the x values squared and the difference in the y values squared being added together and find their square root.

(1,3) (5,3)

1- 5 = -4

3-3 = 0

4^2 + 0^2 = d^2 Where d is the distance.

16 + 0 = d^2

16 = d^2

d =
`√(16)`

d= 4
