Question

Please help, I really cannot do this equation, no matter what. I will medal!
In the coordinate plane shown, how far apart are points E and D? Explain how you can use the Pythagorean theorem to determine this.

Answer 1

\[Hypotenuse^{2} = width ^{2} + height ^{2}\]
\[Hypotenuse^{2} = 6 ^{2} + 10 ^{2}\]
\[Hypotenuse^{2} = 36 + 100\]
\[Hypotenuse^{2} = 136\]
\[Hypotenuse =\sqrt{136}\]
