Question
Find the distances between the following point.
P(–6, –3), Q(–1, 9)
Advertisements
Solution
P(–6, –3), Q(–1, 9)
\[PQ = \sqrt{\left( - 6 - \left( - 1 \right) \right)^2 + \left( - 3 - 9 \right)^2}\]
\[ = \sqrt{25 + 144}\]
\[ = \sqrt{169}\]
\[ = 13\]

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`
