Question 3 (1 point

Virty [35]

Answer:

AB = 5.8 units

Explanation:

The distance of line segment AB shown in the attachment below can be calculated using the distance formula, $d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$ , assuming that each box in the graph equals 1 unit.

A(2, 4)

B(-3, 1)

Let,

$A(2, 4) = (x_1, y_1)$

$B(-3, 1) = (x_2, y_2)$

Plug in the values into the distance formula

$d = \sqrt{(-3 - 2)^2 + (1 - 4)^2}$

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

$d = \sqrt{25 + 9}$

$d = \sqrt{34}$

$d = 5.8$ (nearest tenth)

AB = 5.8 units
