Find the distance between the points (-4, -2) and (-8, 6)

Sagot :

Answer:

distance=√[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²]

√[{6-(-2)}²+ (-8-(-4))²]

√(64+16)

√[100]

10

Points given

  • (-4,-2)
  • (-8,-6)

Distance:-

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

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{(-8+4)^2+(6+2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{(-4)^2+(8)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{64+16}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto \sqrt{80}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf \longmapsto 8.4[/tex]
