Answer:
The distance between (-1,5) and (2,5) is √9 or 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay first, just for explaining purposes, let's call the ordered pair (-1,5) letter A and ordered pair (2,5) letter B.
Now to the answer. To start you use the distance formula. which is:
d=√( (x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²)
Then you solve by plugging the ordered pairs into the formula where -1 from point A is X1 and 5 from point A is Y1. 2 from point B is X2 and 5 from point B is Y2.
When you solve it should look like this:
1. d=√( (x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²)
2. d=√( (2- -1)²+(5-5)²) *2 minus a negative one means plus so we get 3*
3. d=√( (3)²+(0)²)
4. d=√( 9+0)
5. √9 = 3
I think its adjacent not for sure
