Question

Find the distance between the points given. Simplify all irrational answers.
(0, 6) and (5, 12) Please answer and then explain how u did it much appreciated : )

Answer 1

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


d=sqrt((5-0)^2+(12-6)^2)


d=sqrt(5^2+6^2)


d=sqrt(25+36)


d=sqrt(61)

So the exact distance between the two points is \[\large \sqrt{61}\] units
