A line is connected by the points and
. What is the distance of this line?
Write the distance formula.
Substitute the values of the points inside the equation.
Simplify by order of operations.
The length of the line is .
Find the length of the line between the two points provided using the distance formula.
It is definately possible to find the distance from point A to point B, given the coordinates:
.
We can do this by using the formula:
.
The points provided can be plugged into this formula as follows:
.
This is the length.
What is the distance between the following points?
What is the distance between the following points?
To find distance, use distance formula:
Note, if you cannot recall distance formula think of Pythagorean theorem. When using distance formula, you are simply finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Anyway, start plugging in our points and simplify to the answer. We'll call our first point 1 and our second point 2
So our answer is 52.3
