finding the distance from (–6, 2) to the origin. Use (0, 0) as (x1, y1). d = StartRoot (x 2 minus x 1) squared + (y 2 minus y 1)
squared EndRoot What is the difference of the x-coordinates, (x2–x1)? What is the difference of the y-coordinates, (y2–y1)? What is the distance from (–6, 2) to the origin?
