False I think because the variables are right next to each other which means it's multiplying and 0×0 equal 0

True. For example, if 2 is a, and b was 0, then ab would automatically be 0. Both a and b can be 0 though, but at least one of them must be zero.

Graph a right triangle with the two points forming the hypotenuse. Using the sides, find the distance between the two points in

pshichka [43]

Answer:

$d=\sqrt{53}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the distance between two points i.e. (−5,−1) and (−3,−8).

It can be calculated using distance formula as follows :

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

We have, x₁ = -5, x₂ = -3, y₁ = -1 and y₂ = -8

Put all the values,

$d=\sqrt{(-8-(-1))^2+(-3-(-5))^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{49+4}\\\\d=\sqrt{53}$

So, the distance between the points is equal to $\sqrt{53}$
