Find the distance between the given endpoints . (1, 1) and (5, 3) (1 point)

To find the distance between the points (1, 1) and (5, 3), we can use the distance formula:

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

Plugging in the coordinates, we get:

Distance = sqrt((5 - 1)^2 + (3 - 1)^2)
Distance = sqrt((4)^2 + (2)^2)
Distance = sqrt(16 + 4)
Distance = sqrt(20)
Distance = 4.47

Therefore, the distance between the points (1, 1) and (5, 3) is approximately 4.47 units.

or

2 sqrt 5

Yes, you can simplify the square root of 20 further to get 2√5. So, the distance between the points (1, 1) and (5, 3) can also be expressed as 2√5 units.
