Question

What is the distance between points D and H?

Answer 1

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ D(\stackrel{x_1}{9}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{8})\qquad H(\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ DH=\sqrt{(1-9)^2+(3-8)^2}\implies DH=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-5)^2} \\\\\\ DH=\sqrt{64+25}\implies DH=\sqrt{89}\implies DH\approx 9.4$
