Find the distance between the following pairs of points:
(2, 3), (4, 1)
Find the distance between the following pairs of points:
A (2, 3), B (4, 1)

Solution 1
l = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2)`
= `sqrt((4 - 2)^2 + (1 - 3)^2)`
= `sqrt(2^2 + (- 2)^2)`
= `sqrt(4 + 4)`
= `sqrt(8)`
= `sqrt(4 × 2)`
= `2sqrt(2)` units
Solution 2
A (2, 3), B (4, 1)
Suppose the coordinates of point A are (x1, y1) and those of point B are (x2, y2).
x1 = 2, y1 = 3, x2 = 4, y2 = 1
According to distance formula,
d(A,B) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2)`
d(A,B) = `sqrt((4 - 2)^2 + (1 - 3)^2)`
d(A,B) = `sqrt(2^2 + (- 2)^2)`
d(A,B) = `sqrt(4 + 4)`
d(A,B) = `sqrt(8)`
d(A,B) = `sqrt(4 × 2)`
d(A,B) = `2sqrt(2)`
The distance between points A and B is `2sqrt(2)` units.
