The distance between the points be "2√10 units".
Equation of line
According to the question,
Points are:
(x₁, y₁) = (-2, 1)
(x₂, y₂) = (4, 3)
We know the formula,
Distance between two points,
→ D = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
= [tex]\sqrt{(4-(-2))^2+(3-1)^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{(4+2)^2+(2)^2}[/tex]
By solving the squares, we get
= [tex]\sqrt{36+4}[/tex]
= √40
= 2√10 units
Thus the above answer is appropriate.
