Question

D the length of a line segments with the following endpoints. (2,5) (5,9)​

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of this line is of 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between two points:

Suppose that we have two points, $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$. The distance between them is given by:

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

In this question:

The length of the line is the distance between these two points. So

$d = \sqrt{(5-2)^2 + (9-5)^2} = \sqrt{3^2+4^2} = \sqrt{25} = 5$

The length of this line is of 5 units.
