Question

Which is the distance between 1, -4) and (1 18)

Answer 1

Answer:

It would be 22 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, I used the distance formula. You can also count manually, but that's a pain. In case you don't know, the distance formula is this:

d = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2}$

So, let's plug our numbers in.

d = $\sqrt{(1 - 1)^2 + (18 - (-4))^2}$

Subtract...

d = $\sqrt{0^2 + 22^2}$

Exponents...

d = $\sqrt{0 + 484}$

Add, but we'll only get 484. Then, square that...

$\sqrt{484}$ = 22

There's your answer!

Answer 2

Using the distance formula you will get 22:
\| = radical
\|(1-1)^2 +(18 -(-4))
\|0^2+22^2 = \|484 =22
Since the square root of 484 is 22
