The length of AB is 5 units

The length of AB = 5 units

What is the distance between points on a line parallel to X-axis?

"The distance between points [tex](x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)[/tex] on a line parallel to X-axis is, [tex]d=|x_2-x_1|[/tex] "

For given question,

From the graph of ΔABC,

The co-ordinates of A = (1, 2)

The co-ordinates of B = (6, 2)

For ΔABC, the side AB is parallel to X-axis.

Let [tex](x_1,y_1)=(1,2),(x_2,y_2)=(6,2)[/tex]

Using the formula for the distance between points on a line parallel to X-axis,

[tex]\Rightarrow d=|x_2-x_1|\\\\\Rightarrow d=|6-1|\\\\\Rightarrow d=|5|\\\\\Rightarrow d=5~units[/tex]

Therefore, the length of AB = 5 units
