Geography, is the right answer.

Written around AD 150 by Claudius Ptolemy, the Geography is an atlas, a gazetteer and treatise on cartography, organizing the cartographic principles of the 2nd-century Roman Empire.

Find the length of the diagonal BD in the quadrilateral ABCD shown in the coordinate plane
denpristay [2]

Answer:

\sqrt{85}  

Explanation:

Given:

B is at (4,3) and D is at (-2,-4).

Solution:

B(4^{x1} ,3^{y1} )                    D ( -2^{x2} ,-4^{y2} )               d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

BD=\sqrt{(-2-4)^2+(-4-3)^2}⇒ BD =\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-7)^2}

BD =\sqrt{36+49}     ⇒BD =\sqrt{85}

Therefore the answer is \sqrt{85}
