Question

What is the distance between (4,7), (2,2)

Answer 1

Answer:

d = $\sqrt{29}$

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Step 1:  Plug in and find the distance

d = $\sqrt{(2 - 4)^2 + (2 - 7)^2}$

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

d = $\sqrt{4 + 25}$

d = $\sqrt{29}$

Answer:  d = $\sqrt{29}$
