what is the distance from [12,-16] and [-13,-16]

Question

what is the answer

Answer 1

you can use the distance formula to solve this one!

d = sqrt[(x2​−x1​)^2 + (y2​−y1​)^2]

for this scenario that means taking

d = sqrt[(-13 - 12)^2 + (-16 - (-16)^2)]

d = sqrt(625 + 0)

d = 25

meaning that the distance between the points is 25

Answer 2

So, you can make a right triangle with the line between these two points being the hypotenuse.

 

c = √((-16 - (-16))² + (-13 - 12)²)

c = √(0 + (-25)²)

c = √625

c = 25
