Answer:
The distance between (-3, 2) and (0,3) is √10.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we go from (-3,2) to (0,3), x increases by 3 and y increases by 1.
Think of a triangle with base 3 and height 1. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse, which represents the distance between the points (-3, 2) and (0, 3):
distance = √(3² + 1²) = √10
The distance between (-3, 2) and (0,3) is √10.
For this case we have that by definition, the distance between two points is given by:
[tex]d = \sqrt {(x_ {2} -x_ {1}) ^ 2+ (y_ {2} -y_ {1}) ^ 2}[/tex]
We have the following points:
[tex](x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 3,2)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 0,3)[/tex]
Substituting:
[tex]d = \sqrt {(0 - (- 3)) ^ 2+ (3-2) ^ 2}\\d = \sqrt {(3) ^ 2 + (1) ^ 2}\\d = \sqrt {9 + 1}\\d = \sqrt {10}[/tex]
Answer:
The distance between the points is [tex]\sqrt {10}[/tex]
