उत्तर

The distance between points P(–1, 1) and Q(5, –7) is 10 cm.

Explanation:

Let P(x1, y1) = P(–1, 1) and Q(x2, y2) = Q(5, –7)

Here, x1 = –1, y1 = 1, x2 = 5, y2 = –7

By distance formula,

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

= `sqrt([5 - (-1)]^2 + (-7 - 1)^2)`

= `sqrt(36 + 64)`

= `sqrt(100)`

= 10 cm
