Question

What is the length of segment AB? (4 points)

A. 10
B. 12
C. 13
D. 15

Answer 1

(X1-X2)2+(y1-y2)2 use this formula to answer the question

Answer 2

Answer:

C. 13

Step-by-step explanation:

the line AB on the coordinate grid forms a triangle with the x and y coordinate lines

i used the Pythagorean Theorem

The line AB is the hypotenuse and the coordinate lines x and y are the legs

so here is my work:

c = $\sqrt{a^{2} }+b^{2}$

c = $\sqrt{12^{2} }+5^{2}$

c = 13

in conclusion, it's C. 13
