Capitolo 3, Problema 11
Find the distance between each pair of points. If necessary, express answers in simplified radical form and then round to two decimal places. (3.5, 8.2) and (-0.5, 6.2)
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the coordinates of the two points: Point 1 is (3.5, 8.2) and Point 2 is (-0.5, 6.2).
Recall the distance formula between two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\):
\[d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}\]
Substitute the given coordinates into the formula:
\[d = \sqrt{(-0.5 - 3.5)^2 + (6.2 - 8.2)^2}\]
Simplify the expressions inside the parentheses:
Calculate \((-0.5 - 3.5)\) and \((6.2 - 8.2)\), then square each result.
Add the squared values and take the square root of the sum to find the distance. If possible, simplify the radical before rounding to two decimal places.

Concetti chiave
Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Distance Formula
The distance formula calculates the length between two points in the coordinate plane. It is derived from the Pythagorean theorem and given by d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²], where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the points.
