Finite Math Examples
(-7,7)(−7,7) , (3,9)(3,9)
Step 1
Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.
Distance=√(x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2Distance=√(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2
Step 2
Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.
√(3-(-7))2+(9-7)2√(3−(−7))2+(9−7)2
Step 3
Step 3.1
Multiply -1−1 by -7−7.
√(3+7)2+(9-7)2√(3+7)2+(9−7)2
Step 3.2
Add 33 and 77.
√102+(9-7)2√102+(9−7)2
Step 3.3
Raise 1010 to the power of 22.
√100+(9-7)2√100+(9−7)2
Step 3.4
Subtract 77 from 99.
√100+22√100+22
Step 3.5
Raise 22 to the power of 22.
√100+4√100+4
Step 3.6
Add 100100 and 44.
√104√104
Step 3.7
Rewrite 104104 as 22⋅2622⋅26.
Step 3.7.1
Factor 44 out of 104104.
√4(26)√4(26)
Step 3.7.2
Rewrite 44 as 2222.
√22⋅26√22⋅26
√22⋅26√22⋅26
Step 3.8
Pull terms out from under the radical.
2√262√26
2√262√26
Step 4
The result can be shown in multiple forms.
