Calculate the distance between points L(-1, -6) and M(-3, -5)

√50

Answer Details

L

(\begin{matrix} x_{1} & y_{1} \\ - 1 & - 6 \end{matrix})

m L

(\begin{matrix} x_{2} & y_{2} \\ - 3 & - 5 \end{matrix})

D =

\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 3 - (- 1)^{2} + (- 5 - (- 6)^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 3 + 1)^{2} + (- 5 + 6)^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{(- 2)^{2} + 1^{2}}

D =

\sqrt{4 + 1}

D =

\sqrt{5}
