Question

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form for (-6,1) and (-8,-4)

Answer 1

Answer:

\sqrt{29}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{(-6+8)²+(1+4)²}

\sqrt{4+25}

\sqrt{29}

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Δy =-4-1 = -5

Δx =-8-(-6) = -2

distance =  √((Δx)^2+(Δy)^2) = √(4+25) = √29
