Question

Find the distance between (43, -15) & (29, -3).

Answer 1

Use the wonderful distance formula! :)

D = \[\sqrt{(x1-x0) ^{2} + (y1-y0) ^{2}}\]

Where you subtract the x components and the y components.

For instance, you gave me the points (43, - 15) and (29, -3). Plugging in, you get:

\[\sqrt{(43- 29)^{2}+ (-15 - (-3))^{2}}\] = 18.439.

Answer 2

its great using formula but its easy when u understand the point of it and do it making triangle on graph. as you dont have to remember the formula all the time
