what is the distance of (4,1) and (3,1)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

square root of 1

OpenStudy (nikita2):

is it 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{1}\]

OpenStudy (nikita2):

looks like 1 )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

square root of one and 1 are two different things

OpenStudy (nikita2):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Square root of 1 could be -1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wouldn't make sense though as a distance...unless talking about vector magnitude.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooo @nikita youre right..it could be 1 or -1

OpenStudy (nikita2):

sqr(1) and only 1 !!

OpenStudy (nikita2):

but if x^2=1 then x = 1/-1.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the distance from 4 to 3 is 1; distance is an 'absolute' value if you want a direction from 4 to 3; it is -1
