Question

Find the distance between (3, 8) and (0, 5). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

4.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula $d=\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_1)^{2} +(x_2-x_1)^2 }$

$d=\sqrt{(5-8)^2+(0-3)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(-3)^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{9+9} \\\\d=\sqrt{18} \\\\\\d=3\sqrt{2}\\\\d=4.24$
