Question

What is the distance of the line? Remember the distance formula is (23 - 23) + (42 -

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance of the line is 10.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Between two Points in the Plane

Given two points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2), the distance between them is:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

The graph clearly shows the points (-5,4) (4,-2), thus the distance is:

$d=\sqrt{(4-(-5))^2+(-2-4)^2}=\sqrt{9^2+(-6)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{81+36}=\sqrt{117}=10.82$

The distance of the line is 10.82
