The point-slope form can be defined as an equation which is used when the slope of a line and one of the points on this line is known.

Mathematically, the point-slope form of a line is given by:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

<u>Where:</u>

m is the slope.

x and y are the points.

In conclusion, you should use the point-slope form when you know the slope of a line and one of the points on the line is given.

Use the pythagorean theorem to find the distance between from A(5, -3) to B (6,0)

Orlov [11]

C. 3.16 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula used in coordinate geometry is derived from the Pythagorean theorem.

The distance formula is give by:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_2)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of first point and (y1,y2) are the coordinates of second point

Here,

(x1,y1) = (5,-3)

(x2,y2) = (6,0)

Putting the values in the formula

$AB = \sqrt{(6-5)^2+(0-(-3))^2}\\=\sqrt{(1)^2+(0+3)^2}\\=\sqrt{(1)^2+(3)^2}\\=\sqrt{1+9}\\=\sqrt{10}\\=3.16\ units$

The distance between two points is 3.16 units.

Hence,

C. 3.16 is the right answer
