There are 4 units between points A and B. There are 6 units between points B and C. Since the three points form a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between points A and C. The Pythagorean Theorem is:
For this problem, we say the length AC is equal to the square root of AB squared plus BC squared. Since AB is 4 units and BC is 6 units, we can say that
Which is
Which simplifies to
Therefore, the answer is C) root 52
