just a simple fact that (-4-3)^2=49 reveals the answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So now you know that the answer is \(\sqrt{65} \)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[a^2=4^2+7^2\] can you see this
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thank you
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[a =\sqrt{4^2+7^2} =\sqrt{65}\]

The distance formula is d=sqrt%28%28x%5B1%5D-x%5B2%5D%29%5E2%2B%28y%5B1%5D-y%5B2%5D%29%5E2%29

Nice coding^

@nitz you lost me mate :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no i written the distance formula fr finding the distance between two points it changed into this form i dont know how
