Question

What is the distance between two points with coordinates at (8, 40) and (20, 5)?

Answer 1

Answer:

37 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points form a right triangle so

a²+b²=c² so

(8-20)²(x values)+(40-5)²(y values)=c² (distance) so

12²+35²=c² so

144+1225=c²

1369=c²

c=37 units
