Question

On a coordinate grid, point T is at (2, −4) and point S is at (2, 6). The distance (in units) between points T and S is ______. (Input only whole numbers, such as 2.)

Answer 1

The distance between (2,-4) and (2,6) is 10

Answer 2

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = √( x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 6)

d = $\sqrt{(2-2)^2+(6+4)^2}$ = $\sqrt{0+100}$ = $\sqrt{100}$ = 10
