Description : Find the distance between the following pairs of points: (i) (2, 3), (4, 1) (ii) (-5, 7), (-1, 3) (iii) (a, b), (- a, – b) -Maths 10th
Last Answer : Distance between two points (x1 ,y1 ) and (x2 ,y2 ) is (x1 −x2 )2+(y1 −y2 )2 (i) Distance between(2,3) and (4,1) is =(2−4)2+(3−1)2 =(−2)2+(2)2 =4+4 =8 =22 (ii) Distance between (−5,7) and (−1,3) ... 42 (iii )Distance between (a,b) and(−a,−b) is =(a−(−a))2+(b−(−b))2 =(2a)2+(2b)2 =4a2+4b2 =2a2+b2
