 Question 120550: how do you find the distance between the two points? g(5,6) h(9,0) do you use the midpoint formula? m=ysub2 - ysub1 all over xsub2 - xsub1 because that what i use?Answer by jim_thompson5910(28476)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!Start with the given distance formula where is the first point and is the second point Plug in , , , Evaluate to get -4. Evaluate to get 6. Square each value Add Simplify the square root (note: If you need help with simplifying the square root, check out this solver) So the distance approximates to which rounds to 7.21 So the distance between (5,6) and (9,0) is approximately 7.21 units
