Question

What is the approximate distance between point A and B? A(1,4),B(-2,-3)

Answer 1

Answer:

√58 or 7.61 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

A(1,4)

B(-2,-3)

The distance formula is used to find distance between two points.

The distance formula is:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}} \\Putting\ the\ values\\d=\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(-3-4)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(-7)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{9+49}\\=\sqrt{58}$

So the approximate distance is √58 or 7.61 units ..
