Question

What is the distance between the following points?

Answer 1

Answer: You can use the formula  $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$ (SEE EXPLANATION)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the points are not written correctly, I will give you a general explanation about the procedure you should follow in order to find the distance between the two points.

By definition, the distance between two points can be calculated with the following formula:

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

As you can observe, if you have two points:

 $(x_1,y_1)\\\\(x_2,y_2)$

The steps you must follow in order to solve the exercise, are the shown below:

Step 1. You can substitute the values of $x_1,y_1,x_2$ and $y_2$ into the formula $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)}$.

Step 2. You must evaluate in order to find the distance between those two points.
