(Q16)Find the distance between the following pair of points.

(i)(7,8) and (-2,3)  (ii)(-8,6) and (2,0)

Answer

(i) Given points=(7,8) and (-2,3)

Distance formula

=√((x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2)

=√(- - )2 + (-)2

= √((-2) + (-2))

=√ units

(ii)Given points=(-8,6) and (2,0)

Distance formula

=√((x2-x1)2 + ( y2-y1)2)

=√(() - (-))2 + (() - ())2

=√units
