Find the distance between the points ( – 10, – 8) and ( – 10,14). units
To find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), you can use the distance formula:
Distance = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Plugging in the given values:
Distance = sqrt((-10 - (-10))^2 + (14 - (-8))^2)
Distance = sqrt(0^2 + 22^2)
Distance = sqrt(0 + 484)
Distance = sqrt(484)
Distance = 22 units
Therefore, the distance between the points (-10, -8) and (-10, 14) is 22 units.
