Question

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance between the two points ANB round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

Answer:

5.39 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem: $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

Let point (-2,1) be C

Line segment AC would be 2 units long.

Line segment BC would be 5 units long.

Insert the length of the line segments in to the Pythagorean theorem

$2^{2} + 5^{2}$

4 + 25 = 29

$\sqrt{29}$ ≅ 5.385
