Question

What is the distance (in units) between points C and D? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. A. 4.54 B. 5.00 C. 5.83 D. 34.00

Answer 1

Answer:

5.83 = CD

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve

The legs are the x and y distances

x = (1- -4) = 5 units and y = 3 units

a^2+ b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 3^2 = c^2

25+9 = c^2

34 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(34) = c  which is the distance from C to D

5.830951895 = CD

5.83 = CD
