Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{65}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using the distance formula:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2+(y2 - y1)^2}[/tex]
Input the corresponding numbers into the formula
[tex]d = \sqrt{(-8 - (-1))^2+(4-8)^2}[/tex]
Solve
[tex]d = \sqrt{49+16}\\ d =\sqrt{65}[/tex]
The distance between the pair of points A(-1,8) and B(-8,4) is 15.
In geometry, the distance formula is:
√(x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2
Now we can just plug in the x and y values:
√(-1-8)2+(8-(-4)2
√(-1-8)2+(8+4)2
√(-9)2+(12)2
√(81+144)
√(225)
15
So our distance is 15 units.
