1. What is the distance of A from B? D from C? 2. What is the distance of A from D? B from C? 3. Compare the distances. 4. What is the figure formed? Let P (x, y) and Q x, ya) be two points. The distance d between these points can be determined using the distance formula d- - - x): + (-+-yy: or PQ Illustrative Examples: Find the distance between the points with coordinates (-3, 4) and (5,-2) Solution Using the distance formula, we get G-X): +62 - 1) de 23 [5-(-3) + (-2 - 4 (8) + (-6) V100 10
