The distance between the points (2, 5) and (7, 3) can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem:
Let's label the coordinates as:
(x₁, y₁) = (2, 5)
(x₂, y₂) = (7, 3)
The distance between these two points is given by:
d = √((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)
Substituting the given values:
d = √((7 - 2)² + (3 - 5)²)
d = √(5² + (-2)²)
d = √(25 + 4)
d = √29
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the distance is approximately 5.39.
Therefore, the correct answer is 5.39.
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length between (2, 5) and (7, 3) . Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.(1 point)
