Question

Give the coordinates for two points that are 8 units from (4,-3)

Answer 1

Solution:

A point which is 8 units away from (4, -3) can be:

• (4, -3) ⇒ x coordinate = 4
• => 4 + 8 = 12
• => (12, -3)

And,

• (4, -3) ⇒ y coordinate = -3
• => -3 + 8 = 5
• => (4,5)

The two coordinates that are 8 units away are (12, -3) and (4,5).
