HI!!

OpenStudy (krazykricket):

Hey Misty1212

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you need the distance formula for this, and also a calculator

OpenStudy (krazykricket):

My teacher didn't give a formula?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

to find the distance compute \[\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(5+2)^2}\]

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the distance between two points is \[\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_2)^2}\]

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the teacher doesn't give you the formula, mathematics does

OpenStudy (misty1212):

pythagoras actually

OpenStudy (krazykricket):

Oh, Okay.

OpenStudy (misty1212):

compute that number, see what you get
