Question

Find the distance between the points (4, 2) and (-8, 7)

Answer 1

\(\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
&({\color{red}{ 4}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 2}})\quad &({\color{red}{ -8}}\quad ,&{\color{blue}{ 7}})
\end{array}\qquad
d = \sqrt{({\color{red}{ x_2}}-{\color{red}{ x_1}})^2 + ({\color{blue}{ y_2}}-{\color{blue}{ y_1}})^2}\)
