Asked by Robert

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn between points (negative 4, negative 3) and (negative 1, 4).
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance on the coordinate plane.
a2 + b2 = c2
What is the distance between the two points?
StartRoot 20 EndRoot
StartRoot 40 EndRoot
StartRoot 45 EndRoot
StartRoot 58 EndRoot

Distance = sqrt[(−1 − (−4))^2 + (4 − (−3))^2] = sqrt[3^2 + 7^2] = sqrt[9 + 49] = sqrt(58).

Answer: StartRoot 58 EndRoot.
