Question

What is the distance between the points (-7, -13) and (8, -5)?

Answer 1

Help...

Answer 2

if p = (p1, p2) and q = (q1, q2) then the distance is given by
\[Distance = \sqrt{(p1 - q1)^{2} + (p2-q2)^{2}}\]
Use this formula

Answer 3

FYI.. this is known as the Euclidean distance

Answer 4

I don't get it at all....

Answer 5

17 units..is the distance b/w those points

Answer 6

rt.ov. (-7-8)^2+(-13+5)^2
rt ov 289 = 17
