Using the formula for the distance between two points, it is found that the length of the line segment is of 10 units.

-----------------------------

The distance between points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

  • In the line segment, the endpoints are W(-3,7) and Z(5,13).
  • The length of the segment is the distance between them, thus:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(5 - (-3))^2+(13 - 7)^2} = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{100} = 10[/tex]

The length of the line segment is of 10 units.
