Question

What the distance between (6, 2) and (1, 0) please help

Answer 1

.4 im pretty sure, correct me if I’m wrong.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed {d = \sqrt{29}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Distance Formula to help you determine the distance between the two given points:

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}$

First point: $(x_{1}, y_{1})$

Second point: $(x_{2}, y_{2})$

-Apply the given points onto the formula:

First point: $(6, 2)$

Second point: $(1, 0)$

$d = \sqrt{(1 - 6)^{2} + (0 - 2)^{2}}$

-Solve for the distance:

$d = \sqrt{(1 - 6)^{2} + (0 - 2)^{2}}$

$d = \sqrt{(-5)^{2} + (-2)^{2}}$

$d = \sqrt{25 + 4}$

$\boxed {d = \sqrt{29}}$ (Since the number cannot be square rooted, it would stay the same)

Therefore, the distance is $\sqrt{29}$.
