In order to figure out the distance, what do I do?

Sagot :

Answer:

d = square root of {(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2}

Explanation:

If you're referring to math-

the distance is equal to (the second x value minus the first x value)^2 plus (the second y value minus the first y value)^2

For example: this is my imaginary ordered pair, I want to find the distance between the points- (2,4) and (3,6)

So d= (3-2)^2 - (6-4)^2  all under a square root

3-2 is = to 1, and 1 squared is just 1.

6-4 is = to 2, and 2 squared is 4.

4+1 is = 5.

So your answer would be the square root of 5.

If your answer ended up as, for example, the square root of 16, you would go a step further and your answer, or distance would be 4, since 4^2 is 16
