Question

Find the distance between the points (-4, -2) and (-8, 6)

Answer 1

Answer:

distance=√[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²]

√[{6-(-2)}²+ (-8-(-4))²]

√(64+16)

√[100]

10

Answer 2

Points given

• (-4,-2)
• (-8,-6)

Distance:-

$\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{(-8+4)^2+(6+2)^2}$

$\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{(-4)^2+(8)^2}$

$\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{64+16}$

$\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{80}$

$\\ \sf \longmapsto 8.4$
