Question

Find the distance between each points (-1,4) (1,-1)

Answer 1

Answer: The distance is about 5.39 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between the two points find the difference in the x and y coordinates and square them to add them and find their square root.

4-(-1) = 5

-1 -1 = -2

5^2 + -2^2 = d^2  where d is the distance

25 + 4 = d^2

29 = d^2

d = $\sqrt{29}$

d= 5.39
