Question

In a rectangular coordinate system what is the distance from (-2,-1) to (5,3)

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance is $\sqrt{65}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula:

$\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1)^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

$\sqrt{(5 - (-2))^{2} + (3 - (-1))^{2} }$

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

$\sqrt{49 + 16}$

$\sqrt{65}$
