Answer 1

Hey @Shadow, do u do the same thing? Im just doing this on a Piece of paper

\[D = \sqrt (-8 - 7)^2 + (-9 - -1)^2\]

This is the setup.

Are there answer choices?

Answer 3

Ye, Lemme Type them.

Answer 4

\[1^2 + 10^2 \]

Answer 5

\[1^2 + 8^2\]

Answer 6

\[15^2 + 8^2\]

Answer 7

Those are the answer choices @Shadow

Answer 8

They basically just want you to simplify this

\[(-8 - 7)^2 + (-9 - -1)^2\]

Answer 9

o

Answer 10

Okay, So Its going to be \[(-15)^2 + (8)^2\]
