Question

Find the distance between these points. R(-1,0), S(8,6) V(26) V(85) 3V(13)

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance is equal to $3\sqrt{13}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

$R(-1,0)\\S(8,6)$  

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(6-0)^{2}+(8+1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(6)^{2}+(9)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{36+81}$

$d=\sqrt{117}\ units$

Simplify

$d=3\sqrt{13}\ units$
