Find the distance between the following pair of points:

(-6, 7) and (-1, -5)

Advertisements

उत्तर

The distance d between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula.

`d = sqrt((x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2)`

The two given points are (-6, 7) and (-1, -5)

The distance between these two points is 

`d = sqrt((-6 + 1)^2 + (7 +5)^2)`

`= sqrt((-5)^2 + (12)^2)`

`= sqrt(25 + 144)`

`= sqrt(169)`

= d = 13

Hence the distance is 13 units

Find distance between point A(–1, 1) and point B(5, –7):

Solution: Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)

x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = – 7

Using distance formula,

d(A, B) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`

∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square +[(-7) + square]^2`

∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square)`

∴ d(A, B) = `square`
