Answer:
The distance between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) = √((x1-x2)2+(y1-y2)2) Distance between A and B = √((5--2)2+(4-1)2) = √(72+32) = √(49+9) = √58 = 7.62 Distance between A and C = √(12+82) = √65 = 8.06 Point B is closer to A. Another method to solve this problem is to draw the points on a graph paper and measure distance with a ruler.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
|AB|=[tex]\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(-2-5)^2 }=\sqrt{58}[/tex]
|AC|=[tex]\sqrt{(-4-4)^{2}+(4-5)^2 }=\sqrt{65}[/tex]
