Question

Point E is located at (8-,7) point F is located at (9,7). What is the distance in units between point E and point F?

Answer 1

Answer:

$d=\sqrt{197}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula to find the distance between two points.

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

Plug in your coordinate points into x and y.

$d=\sqrt{(9-8)^{2}+(7-(-7))^{2}}$

Solve for d.

$d=\sqrt{(1)^{2}+(14)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{197}}$
