You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(-3,-2) (1,4)
\n" ); document.write( "You can use the distance formula:
\n" ); document.write( "The distance 'd' between the points A = (x1, y1) and B = (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "D= SqRt of (x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x1 = -3 ; y1 = -2
\n" ); document.write( "x2 = 1 ; y2 = 4
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "D=SqRt of (1 - -3)^2 + (4 - -2)^2
\n" ); document.write( "D=SqRt of (4)^2 + (6)^2
\n" ); document.write( "D=SqRt of (16) + (36)
\n" ); document.write( "D=SqRt of 52
\n" ); document.write( "D=7.21
\n" ); document.write( "(that is an approimation rounded to the nearest hundredth)
\n" ); document.write( "SqRt means square root
\n" ); document.write( "^2 means that squared
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
