Which equation would you use to find the distance between point A and point H?

A. |4 + 1|
B. |-4 - 1|
C. |4 - 1|
D. |4 - (-1)|

Which Equation Would You Use To Find The Distance Between Point A And Point HA 4 1 B 4 1C 4 1D 4 1 class=

Sagot :

B -4-1 because the one is positive and the 4 is negative

The equation [ 4 - 1 ] should be used for calculating distance between A and H.

What is distance in coordinate geometry?

'The distance between two points is the length of the line segment, joining the given two points. The distance of a point from a line will be the shortest line segment's length from the point to the line.'

According to the given problem,

The point A is at (-4 , 4) and the point H is at (-4 , 1).

Now both the points lie in the second quadrant where Y is positive and X is negative.

Let (-4 , 1) be [tex](x_{1}, y_{1} )[/tex]

     (-4 , 4) be [tex](x_{2},y_{2} )[/tex]

Since, [tex]x_{1} , x_{2}[/tex] are the same, the difference between them would be 0.

⇒ [tex]y_{2} - y_{1}[/tex] = [4 - 1]

Hence, we can conclude that equation [ 4 - 1 ] should be used to calculate the distance between point A and point H.
