Question

    Find the distance between the points (2, 5) and (7,

    1).
    A √41 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B √29 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C √61 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D √11 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Use the distance formula: Distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²] Substituting the coordinates: Distance = √[(7 - 2)² + (1 - 5)²] = √[5² + (-4)²] = √[25 + 16] = √41 units
