Question

Find the distance between each pair of points. if necessary, round answers to two decimal places. (-2,3) and (3,-9)

Answer 1

----------------------------------------------------
Coordinates
----------------------------------------------------
(-2 , 3) and ( 3, -9)

----------------------------------------------------
Formula
----------------------------------------------------
$Distance = \sqrt{(Y_2-Y_1)^2 + (X_2 - X_1)^2}$

----------------------------------------------------
Substitute coordinates and find distance
----------------------------------------------------
$Distance = \sqrt{(3 - (-9))^2 + (-2-3)^2}$

$Distance = \sqrt{(12)^2 + (-5)^2}$

$Distance = \sqrt{144 + 25}$

$Distance = \sqrt{169}$

$Distance = 13 \ units$

----------------------------------------------------
Answer: 13 units
