Point C has the coordinates (–1, 4) and point D has the coordinates (2, 0). What is the distance between points C and D?

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

insert the numbers into the formula $d=\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(0-4)^2}$

2+1=3 and 0-4=-4

$3^2$ =9 and $-4^{2}$ = 1

9+16=25

the square root of 25 is 5

when your finding the area of a rectangle do you multiply the numbers around the perimeter or add them.

Flura [38]

When you are finding the area, you multiply the length x the width. So for example, we have a rectangle that the length is 6 feet and the width is 4 feet. So, first of all we multiply 6x4= 24. Since its area don't forget it is Square Feet (or any other type of measurement).

Hope it helps!
