What is the distance between 2,3 and -2,7 round to the nearest tenth
The distance between point (2,3) and (-2,7) can be calculated using the distance formula:
Distance = √[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2]
Distance = √[(-2 - 2)^2 + (7 - 3)^2]
Distance = √[(-4)^2 + (4)^2]
Distance = √[16 + 16]
Distance = √32
Distance ≈ 5.7
So, the distance between the points (2,3) and (-2,7) rounded to the nearest tenth is approximately 5.7 units.
