Help
(Will make you the brainliest if answer “correctly”)


Sagot :

  • (-2,5)
  • (3,7)

Distance:-

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(3+2)^2+(7-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{5^2+2^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{25+4}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{29}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 5.2[/tex]

Given Points

  • -2 and 5 (x = -2 , y = 5)

  • 3 and 7 (x = 3 , y = 7)

[tex]\begin{gathered} {\underline{\boxed{ \rm {\red{Distance \: = \: \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1) \: + \: (y_2 - y_1)} }}}}}\end{gathered}[/tex]

[tex] \begin{cases}\large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \sqrt{ \bigg(3 - [ - 2] \bigg) \: + \: (7 - 5)}\\ \\ \large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \sqrt{ (3 + 2 ) \: + \: (7 - 5)} \\ \\ \large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \sqrt{ {5} \: ^{2} + \: {2}^{2} } \\ \\ \large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \: \sqrt{25 \: + \: 4} \\ \\ \large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \: \ \sqrt{29} \\ \\\large\bf{\blue{ \implies}} \tt \: Distance \: = \: \:5.38 \: \: units \end{cases}[/tex]
