The distance formula can be derived from the Pythagorean theorem. So, to find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), we can use the formula:
distance = √((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)
In this case, the first point is (2,7) and the second point is (-2,0).
distance = √((-2-2)^2 + (0-7)^2)
= √((-4)^2 + (-7)^2)
= √(16 + 49)
= √65
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the distance is approximately 8.06.
distance = √((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)
In this case, the first point is (2,7) and the second point is (-2,0).
distance = √((-2-2)^2 + (0-7)^2)
= √((-4)^2 + (-7)^2)
= √(16 + 49)
= √65
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the distance is approximately 8.06.
