Question

Find the distance between the points given. (0,5) and (-5,0)

Answer 1

Answer:

5$\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance between the points using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, 0)

d = $\sqrt{(-5-0)^2+(0-5)^2}$

  = $\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-5)^2}$

  = $\sqrt{25+25}$ = $\sqrt{50}$ = 5$\sqrt{2}$ ← exact value
