The points are not provided in the question. Please provide the points so the distance between them can be calculated and described.
M=(5,-4) and S=(5,9)
The distance between point M(5, -4) and point S(5, 9) can be found using the distance formula in 2 dimensions:
Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Plugging in the coordinates:
Distance = √((5 - 5)^2 + (9 - (-4))^2)
Distance = √(0^2 + 13^2)
Distance = √(0 + 169)
Distance = √169
Distance = 13
Therefore, the distance between point M and point S is 13 units.
Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Plugging in the coordinates:
Distance = √((5 - 5)^2 + (9 - (-4))^2)
Distance = √(0^2 + 13^2)
Distance = √(0 + 169)
Distance = √169
Distance = 13
Therefore, the distance between point M and point S is 13 units.
