Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: Yes, the answer is sqrt (53)
Discussion:
X = (-4,0), Y = (3,2)
The length of XY, via the Pythagorean theorem, is given by
sqrt ( (diff of x values)^2 + (diff of y values)^2)
In our case this becomes:
sqrt ( ( -4 - 3) ^ 2 + (0 - 2)^2 ) =
sqrt ( (-7)^2 + (-2)^2) ) =
sqrt ( 49 + 4 ) =
sqrt (53)
Thank you,
MrB
