On a map, Bobby’s house is at (+6, +4) and the pool is at (+3, +4). What is the distance between the points that represent his house and the pool? A. 3 B. 4 C. 6 D. 9
To find the distance between two point, you can use the pythagorean theorem by [ittomg both points in a graph and tracing a triangle, or, you could find it using this formule Distance = \[\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}\] Where x1, y1 is the coordinates of one of the points, and x2, y2 the other one's
Wat does this even mean?
You plug everything in it, it's just arithmetic x1 = 6 x2 = 3 y1 = 4 y2 = 4 sqrt((3-6)^2+(4-4)^2) = 3
Generally, you find distance between two points with this formula, but this on this one, you should also have used 6-3 = 3, since the y value for both points is the same
You think its A. 3
Yes.
Nvm i figured it out in a EASIER way for me but, THANKS!!
