x2 - x1 y2 - y1 or AB = √(x1 - x2)2 + (y1 - y2)2
(x2, y2) (x1, y1) x2 - x1 y2 - y1 -4 3 2 50 √25 × √2 5 × √2 or just 5√2 5√2 is the exact answer -7 1 7.071 Pre AP & AP math round to 3 decimals 7.071 is an approximate answer 49 1
exact and GH = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 GH = √(-3 - 5)2 + (6 - (-1))2 GH = √(-8)2 + (7)2 GH = √64 + 49 GH = √113 (exact answer) GH ≈ 10.630 (approx. ans.)
