Answer:

The length of side BC is 2.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the distance between two points

- If there are two points their coordinates are (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2),

then we can find the distance between them by this rule:

d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

- Now lets solve the problem

∵ B = (3 , 3)

∵ C = (5 , 1)

- To find the length of BC use the rule of the distance above

- Let point B is (x1 , y1) and point C is (x2 , y2)

∵ x1 = 3 and x2 = 5

∵ y1 = 3 and y2 = 1

∴ BC = √[(5 - 3)² + (1 - 3)²]

∴ BC = √[(2)² + (-2)²]

∴ BC = √[4 + 4] = √8 = 2.8 units

* The length of side BC is 2.8 units
