Given:
The points N(1, 0) and P(3, 8).
Required:
Find the distance between the points.
Explanation:
The concept required:
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ Where, \\ (x_1,x_2)\text{ are points.} \end{gathered}[/tex]We have N(1, 0) and P(3, 8).
So,
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt{(3-1)^2+(8-0)^2} \\ d=\sqrt{2^2+8^2} \\ d=\sqrt{4+64} \\ d=\sqrt{68} \\ d=8.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
Distance between N and P is 8.2 units.
