Question

Find the distance between these points.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sqrt{85}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 6, - 3)

d = $\sqrt{(-6-0)^2+(-3-4)^2}$

   = $\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-7)^2}$

   = $\sqrt{36+49}$

   = $\sqrt{85$ ← exact distance
