Question

Find the distance between (1,-3) and (-8, 6) approximated to 1 decimal place.
Select the correct response:
12.8
12.7
12.9
12.6

Answer 1

The distacnce between the points is 12.7

How to determine the distance?

The points are given as:

(1, -3) and (-8, 6)

The distance is calculated as:

d = sqrt((x2 -x1)^2 + (y2- y1)^2)

So, we have

d = sqrt((1 + 8)^2 + (-3 - 6)^2)

Evaluate

d = 12.7

Hence, the distacnce between the points is 12.7
