I need help on my Geometry homework with 2 questions!Please and thank you!? question 1 : Line segment EF has endpoints at E(-2, 1) and F(-5, 5). Line segment GH has endpoints at G(-1, -2) and H(3, 1). What are their lengths? question 2:Use the Distance Formula to find the distance to the nearest tenth between A(-7, -4) and B(-2, 0).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so what is the distance formula? you know it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just write plug in what you know. what to points do they give you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

two*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean?two points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x,y) = just one point on a coordinate plane so what two POINTS do they give you----->(x,y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ill try to figure it out >.< lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d=square root of ({x2-x1}^2+{y2-y1}^2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[Distance formula = \sqrt{(x1{-}x2)^{2}(y2-y1)^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry x2-x1
