Question

If the endpoints of AB are located at (0,7) and (8,8) what is the length of AB?

Answer 1

Answer:

√65

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula can be represented as

$\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}$

Taking (8,8) as (x₂, y₂) and (0,7) as (x₁, y₁), we have

$\sqrt{(8 -0)^2 + (8-7)^2}\\= \sqrt{8^2 + 1^2}\\= \sqrt{65}$

as our answer
