The distance between the points C(-3,1) and D(5,6) is 10.3 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider CD is a line segment.
The point C is (-3,1) and D is (5,6).
The Cartesian formula for line is used to find the length between the CD.
Distance between two points = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex].
The points are (-3,1) and (5,6).
=[tex]\sqrt{(6-(-3))^2+(6-1)^2}[/tex].
=[tex]\sqrt{(6+3)^2+(6-1)^2}[/tex]
=[tex]\sqrt{9^2+5^2}[/tex].
=[tex]\sqrt{81+25}[/tex].
=[tex]\sqrt{106}[/tex].
=10.295 ≈ 10.3.
Distance between two points 10.3 units.
