<PRE><B>Question 239036</B>
find the distance between A (-2,3) B (0,4) using the distance formula. This is a multiple choice question on my homework I worked it out and I don&#39;t get any of the choices . 
-----
d = sqrt[(4-3)^2 + (0--2)^2]
---
d = sqrt[1^2 + 2^2]
---
d = sqrt[5]

The choices are A. 6.708, B. 3square root 5, C.-2, D. 45. When I work it out I get 25+16 which is 41 and the square root of that is 6.403. What did I do wrong? Please help
