what is the distance formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}\]

OpenStudy (lalaly):

squareroot of (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2-(x_2-x_1)^2}\]

OpenStudy (aroub):

\[\sqrt{(x1-y1)^{2}+(x2-y2)^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

drawing a picture so you can see whats going on, one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question is this (-1,8), (-8,3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (lalaly):

squareroot of (-8-1)^2 + (3-8)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the square root of (x1-x2)squared minus (y1-y2)squared

OpenStudy (amistre64):

from here to there ....

myininaya (myininaya):

lovely joe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

every time i post a picture and look at it i think, "....is my handwriting really that bad? O.o"

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\sqrt{(-8-(-1))^2+(3-8)^2}=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{49+25}=\sqrt{74}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

it is bad but readable lol

OpenStudy (aroub):

\[\sqrt{(3-8)^{2}+(-8+1)^{2}} =\sqrt{(11)^{2}+(-7)^{2}} =\sqrt{121+49}=\sqrt{170}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

you should my writing it is horrible

myininaya (myininaya):

worse than yours probably

myininaya (myininaya):

3-8=-5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thouht -8-(-1) go first

myininaya (myininaya):

addition is commutative a+b=b+a

OpenStudy (aroub):

woah! yeah sry ur right my mistake

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats the answer

myininaya (myininaya):

look at my posting above and you will see it

myininaya (myininaya):

sqrt{74}
