Algebra Examples

$(2, 4)$ , $(- 3, - 3)$

Step 1

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.

$Distance = \sqrt{{(x_{2} - x_{1})}^{2} + {(y_{2} - y_{1})}^{2}}$

Step 2

Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.

$\sqrt{{((- 3) - 2)}^{2} + {((- 3) - 4)}^{2}}$

Step 3
