Question

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the distance between points A(5, 3) and B(-3, -3).  1) 64 
 2) 36 
 3) 100 
 4) 10

anonymous · Answer

Formula
$$Distance= \sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2}+(y_{1}-y_{2})^{2}} $$
insert yout values$$Distance= \sqrt{(5--3)^{2}+(3--3)^{2}} $$
$$= \sqrt{8^{2}+6^{2}} $$
$$= \sqrt{64+36} $$
$$= \sqrt{100}=10 $$
