Question 257697: distance between the points (3, -5) and (-4, -6)
Answer by unlockmath(1688)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello,
The formula we'll use here is sq root of {(x-x)^2+(y-y)^2}.
Plug in the numbers will give us:
Sq rt {(3--4)^2+(-5--6)^2 rewritten as:
Sq rt {7^2+1^2} This is rewritten as:
Sq Rt (50) And the sq rt of 50 is:
7.07 is the distance between the 2 points.
Make Sense?
