Question

1. what do you obtain after taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the differences in coordinates?

a. the perimeter
b. the radius
c. the distance
d. the area

Explanation:

This refers to the distance formula between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$: $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$, which calculates the straight-line distance between the two coordinate points.

Answer:

c. The distance
