Solved by pluggable solver: Distance Formula


The first point is (x1,y1). The second point is (x2,y2)


Since the first point is (6, 9), we can say (x1, y1) = (6, 9)
So ,


Since the second point is (9, 4), we can also say (x2, y2) = (9, 4)
So ,


Put this all together to get: , , , and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Now use the distance formula to find the distance between the two points (6, 9) and (9, 4)






Plug in , , , and













==========================================================

Answer:


The distance between the two points (6, 9) and (9, 4) is exactly units


The approximate distance between the two points is about 5.8309518948453 units



So again,


Exact Distance: units


Approximate Distance: units
