Question 82181: I submitted this problem and I am not quite sure it was done right. Can I get someone to show me how to do this again. Please?I think I am suppose to use the distance formula, right? Then what?
Find the distance between (–3, –2) and (1, 4)
It has multiple choice answers and they are:
27
2√5
2√13
√10 Answer by vertciel(183) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hello there,
Distance Formula = √[(y2 - y1)^2 + (x2 - x1)^2]
= √[(4 - -2)^2 + (1 - -3)^2]
= √36 + 16
= √52
= √4 x 13
= 2√13
So 2√13 should have been your answer.
