Question

Find the length of the line segment displayed below. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth (2 decimal places)

Answer 1

Answer:

AB=5.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Formula=

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

Plugging our values in, we get:

$\sqrt{(7 - 2)^{2} + (4 - 1)^{2} }$

And if we solve it like this:

$\sqrt{25 + 9}$

We end up with:

$\sqrt{34}$

Which is about 5.83
