Question

find the distance between a point (6,9) and a horizontal line at y=5

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance = √52

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First point = (6,9)

And y = 5

So,

x = 0

Second point = (0,5)

Find:

Distance

Computation:

Distance = √(x1 - x2)² + (Y1 - Y2)²

Distance = √(6 - 0)² + (9 - 5)²

Distance = √ 36 + 16

Distance = √52
