Hello : let  A(2,5)    B(-1,8)<span>
<span>the slope is :   (YB - YA)/(XB -XA)= (8-5)/(-1-2)=3/-3 = -1 
</span></span><span>the equation in point-slope form is : y-5 = -(x-2)</span>

Determine the distance between point (x1, y1) and point (x2, y2), and assign the result to point distance. the calculation is: d
Ronch [10]

we are given two points as

(1.0, 2.0) and (1.0, 5.0)

so,

(x1, y1)= (1.0 , 2.0)

(x2, y2)= (1.0 , 5.0)

x1=1 , y1=2

x2=1 , y2=5

now, we can use distance formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

now, we can plug values

and we get

d=\sqrt{(1-1)^2+(5-2)^2}

d=\sqrt{(0)^2+(3)^2}

d=\sqrt{(3)^2}

d=3

so, distance between points is 3...........Answer
