  • Distance Formula: [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-4, 2)

Point (2, -6)

Step 2: Find distance d

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the distance formula to find distance d

  1. Substitute [DF]:                              [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(2+4)^2+(-6-2)^2}[/tex]
  2. (Parenthesis) Add/Subtract:          [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{(6)^2+(-8)^2}[/tex]
  3. [√Radical] Exponents:                   [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{36+64}[/tex]
  4. [√Radical] Add:                              [tex]\displaystyle d = \sqrt{100}[/tex]
  5. [√Radical] Evaluate:                      [tex]\displaystyle d = 10[/tex]
