Question

Find the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4,3).

Answer 1

ANSWER: Exact Form: $\sqrt{10}$

Decimal Form:  3.16227766

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

(1, 2) and (4,3)

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.

Distance = \sqrt{(X2-X1)^{2  }+ (Y2-Y1)^{2} }

Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.

\sqrt{(4-1)^{2  }+ (3-2)^{2} }

The result can be shown in multiple forms.
