Question

Find the distance between the points (-4, 6) and (8, -12).Round your solution to 2 decimal points.

Answer 1

use distance formula
\[\large \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}\]
\[\large \implies \sqrt{(-4 - 8)^2 + \left[6-(-12)\right]^2}\]
does that help?

Answer 2

yes, so i solve the equation by doing the equation and then the root?

Answer 3

yup
