Question

What is the distance between the points (6,-3) and (6,5)?

Answer 1

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually we would have to use a formula to find the distance between the two points, however the x values of both coordinates are the same therefore we can find the distance between the two points by subtracting the smaller y value (-3 ) from the larger y value ( 5 )

Distance = 5 - ( - 3 )

* the two negative signs cancels out *

5 + 3 = 8

The distance between the two points is 8 units

Answer 2

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{(6-6)^{2}+(-3-5)^{2}}$

=> $\sqrt{64}$

=> 8
