Point A(2, 2) and point B(4, −3) are located on the grid. Which measurement is closest to the distance between point A and point B in units?

Answer 1

To find the distance between point A(2, 2) and point B(4, -3), we can use the distance formula:

Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Plugging in the coordinates for point A(2, 2) and point B(4, -3):

Distance = √((4 - 2)^2 + (-3 - 2)^2)
Distance = √(2^2 + (-5)^2)
Distance = √(4 + 25)
Distance = √29

The distance between point A and point B is √29, which is closest to 5.39 units.
