Question

Find the distance between each pair of points. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

A(0,3), B(0,12)

Answer 1

You want the distance of A and B?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

ok, thanks

Answer 4

Okay let me work this real quick
(0,9)

Answer 5

It is 0 X and 9 in the Y

Answer 6

that is what the answer would be?

Answer 7

It should be

Answer 8

That is what we learned in Algebra 1 Last Year!

Answer 9

oh, ok thanks!! give me a minute and i'll try out your question!

Answer 10

@allieatthedisco Do you memorize the distance formula yet?

Answer 11

partially. i haven't had to in my course yet but i probably should

Answer 12

(x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2 and thats all i know

Answer 13

Distance: √(Δx² + Δy² )

Answer 14

@nincompoop i did

Answer 15

Don't forget the sqrt sign!

Answer 16

right! thank you. so i would have (0+0)^2 + (3+12)^2 all under a sqrt sign?

Answer 17

NO, Δy = 12 - 3 = 9

Answer 18

so i would end up with 0 + 81 under the sqrt then the final answer would be 9. does that seem correct?

Answer 19

ok thank you so very much! i really appreciate it!

Answer 20

Very straight forward distance formula, indeed :)
