Question

Find the distance between the two points (8, 3), (0, -3)

Answer 1

It would be 14 points away from each other

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by

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

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

The distance between (8, 3), (0, -3) is

$\sqrt{ ({8 - 0})^{2} + ({3 + 3})^{2} }$

$= \sqrt{ {8}^{2} + {6}^{2} }$

$= \sqrt{64 + 36}$

$= \sqrt{100}$

We have the final answer as

10 units
