Problema Solution
Find the distance between the points (-18,2) and (-13,5). Also find the midpoint of the segment that joins the points.
What is the distance?
What is the midpoint?
Answer provided by our tutors
Distance = sqrt[(-13-(-18))^2 + (5 - 2)^2] = sqrt[25 + 9] = sqrt(34)
Midpoint = [(-13-18)/2 , (5 + 2)/2] = (-15.5, 3.5)
