Question

Find the distance formula of a(0,-6),b(14,0)

Answer 1

Answer: $2\sqrt{58}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a = (0, -6)   b = (14, 0)

$d = \sqrt{(x_{a} - x_{b})^{2}+ (y_{a}-y_{b})^{2}$

  = $\sqrt{(0-14)^{2}+ (-6-0)^{2}}$

  = $\sqrt{(-14)^{2}+ (-6)^{2}}$

  = $\sqrt{196+36}$

  = $\sqrt{232}$

  = $2\sqrt{58}$
