The distance between the side AB and BC respectively is mathematically given as

d=8 and 7 option A

<h3>What is the distance between the side AB and BC respectively?</h3>

Generally, the equation for distance between two points is mathematically given as

d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²)

Therefore

$d=\sqrt{((-4-4)^2+(-1-(-1))^2)}$

d=8

For BC

$d=\sqrt{((-4-(-4))^2+(6--1)^2)}$

d=7

In conclusion, The distance between the side AB and BC is

d=8 and 7
