The distance between (0, 2) and ( -1,
-4).
We will use the distance formula to
calculate.
We know that the distance formula
is:
D = sqrt [ ( xA- xB)^2 + ( yA-
yB)^2
==> D = sqrt[ ( 0+1)^2 + (
2+4)^2]
= sqrt( 1+
36)
=
sqrt(37)
Then, the distance between the point ( 0,2)
and the point (-1,-4) = sqrt(37) = 6.08 units (
approx.)
The distance between ( 3, -4) and
( -1,3).
We will us the distance formula to calculate the
distance.
D = sqrt[ ( 3+1)^2 + (
-4-3)^2]
= sqrt( 4^2 + 7^2)
=
sqrt( 16 + 49)
= sqrt( 65) =
8.06
Then, the distance between the point ( 3,-4) and
the point ( -1,3) = sqrt(65) = 8.06 units ( approx.)
