Two points in a rectangular coordinate system have the coordinates (5.2, 3.0) and (-2.6, 4.9), where the units are centimeters. Determine the distance between these points.

Respuesta :

The measure of the distance between these points is 8.03 units.

How to find the length of a Line segment?

The formula for the length of the line segment is;

d = √[(x2 − x1)² + (y2 − y1)²]

We are given the coordinates of Line segment AB as;

A (5.2, 3) and B(-2.6, 4.9))

Thus, distance of line segment PQ is;

d = √[(4.9 − 3)² + (-2.6 − 5.2)²]

d = √(3.61 + 60.84)

d = √64.45

d = 8.03

Thus, we can say that the measure of the distance between these points is 8.03 units.
