Question

Find the distance between (-3, -11) and (8, -42)

Answer 1

Answer:

32.8937 units

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we can imagine this as a right triangle with a length of 11 (THe change of the X's) and the height being 31 (Change of the Y's)

Then we use pythagorean therom to find the hypotenuse (the length)

11^2 + 31^2 = c^2

121+961 = C^2

1082 = c^2
