Question

Segment AB has point A located at (6, 5). If the distance from A to B is 5 units, which of the following could be used to calculate the coordinates for point B?

5 = 

5 = 

5 = 

5 = 

Answer 1

Yes 1 fits

You can look up the formula for the distance between two point in your text and online. Then just substitute the coordinates of point A (6,5) as (x₁, y₁)

The coordinates of point A (6,5) are (x₁y₁)

Most of the choices can be ruled out since the coordinates of point A are positive

Answer 2

The distance formula between points (a,b) (c,d) is

sqrt[(a-c)² + (b-d)²].

You should be able to decide the answer from this information.
