In the coordinate plane, what is the length of the line segment that connects points at (5,4) and (−3, −1) ?

Enter your answer in the box. Round to the nearest hundredth.

Respuesta :

Do do this problem you need to use the distance formula!


So, Plug in the points and solve:

[tex]\sqrt{ (-3-5)^2+(-1-4)^2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{ (-8)^2+(-5)^2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{ 64+25}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{89}[/tex]
9.43 

I hope this helps!
