For the length between landmark B (5,3) and F(14,4). Round the answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary

1 answer

To find the length between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), we can use the distance formula:

Distance = √((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)

In this case, the coordinates of landmark B are (5, 3) as (x1, y1) and the coordinates of landmark F are (14, 4) as (x2, y2).

So, the distance is:
Distance = √((14-5)^2 + (4-3)^2)
Distance = √(9^2 + 1^2)
Distance = √(81 + 1)
Distance = √82
Distance ≈ 9.06 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Therefore, the length between landmark B and F is approximately 9.06 units.
