Answer:
The distance between points A and B is 8.5 units, approximately.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the image attached you can observe a representation of the problem.
We have to find the distance between points A and B, which have coordinates (6,0) and (0,6), respectively.
The definition of distance between to given points is
[tex]d=\sqrt{(y_{2} -y_{1} )^{2} +(x_{2} -x_{1})^{2} }[/tex]
Using points A and B, the distance between is
[tex]d_{AB}=\sqrt{(6-0)^{2} +(0-6)^{2} } =\sqrt{36+36}=\sqrt{72} \\ d_{AB} \approx 8.5[/tex]
Therefore, the distance between points A and B is 8.5 units, approximately.
