Point D has coordinates (8,3). Point G has coordinates (-4,3). What is the length of segment DG?

6 units
12 units
14 units
4 units

Sagot :

Answer: 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If you graph them on a graph you count the units between them and that is your anwser.

Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate DG using the distance formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2 -y_{1} } )^2[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = D (8, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = G (- 4, 3 )

DG = [tex]\sqrt{(-4-8)^2+(3-3))^2}[/tex]

     = [tex]\sqrt{(-12)^2+0^2}[/tex]

     = [tex]\sqrt{144+0}[/tex]

    = [tex]\sqrt{144}[/tex]

    = 12
