Question

Find the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 3). √7 √10 5√2

Answer 1

The approximate value for the distance between the two points is 3.162277663.16227766.√10≈3.16227766

Answer 2

Answer:  The correct option is

(B) √10

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 3).

We have the following distance formula :

DISTANCE FORMULA :  The distance between the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

$D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.$

Therefore, the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 3) is given by

$D\\\\=\sqt{(4-1)^2+(3-2)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{3^2+1^2}\\\\=\sqrt{9+1}\\\\=\sqrt{10}.$

Thus, the required distance between the given points is √10 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
