Question

(9,5) and (4,-7) find the distance between two points

Answer 1

Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula, d = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}$, where (x2, y2) and (x1, y1) are two different points on the line.

Plug in the values:

d = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}$

d = $\sqrt{(9 - 4)^2 + (5 + 7)^2}$

d = $\sqrt{5^2 + 12^2}$

d = $\sqrt{25 + 144}$

d = $\sqrt{169}$

d = 13
