Question

Hi if you can give me a clear explanation that would be great! :)
1) segment ab has endpoints a(-3,1) and b(2,-6). suppose that point b is translated to b (-1,-8)
-how far away is point b from point a?
-how far did point b move to get to point b?

Answer 1

The distance of point a from translated b is 9.2 units and the distance of point b from translated b is 3.6 units

What is a line?

A line is the distance between two points.

Analysis:

point a( -3,1) point b(2, -6) point translated b(-1, -8)

Distance ab = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2} }$

Distance ab = $\sqrt{(-1--3)^{2} + (-8-1)^{2} }$ = 9.21 units

Distance btb = $\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2} + (-8- -6)^{2} }$ = 3.6 units

In conclusion, the distance of b from a is 9.2 units and b from b is 3.6 units.
