Question 931910: A.Find the Distance d(P,Q)
B.Find the coordinates of the midpoint M of the segment PQ
P(3√3,5√5), Q(√3,-√5)
I get that you need to use the distance formula but how do you do so with square roots?

Exactly the same as without square roots.
 = \sqrt{(3 \sqrt{3} - \sqrt{3})^2 + (5 \sqrt{5} - (-\sqrt{5}))^2} = \sqrt{(2 \sqrt{3})^2 + (6\sqrt{5})^2} = \sqrt{12+120} = \sqrt{192} = 8 \sqrt{3})
 = (2\sqrt{3}, 2\sqrt{5}))
