The distance between the 2 given points is 35 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Let A be the point (14, 27) and B be the point (14, −8).
Distance between any 2 points is obtained by the taking root of the sum of squares of the difference between the x co ordinates and the y co ordinates and is given by the formula
[tex]\sqrt({x_{2} - x_{1}) ^{2} + ({y_{2} - y_{1}) ^{2} }[/tex]
Where [tex](x_{1} , y_{1}) and (x_{2} , y_{2})[/tex] are the 2 points
Step 2 :
Using the above formula , we get the distance between the 2 given points as
[tex]\sqrt({14-14)^{2} + {((-8)-27)^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{(-35)^{2} }[/tex] = 35 units
Step 3 :
Answer:
The required distance of the 2 given points is 35 units
