Find the distance between P and S.

Open in App

Solution

Both P(3, 2) and S(-2, 2) lie on the same line n which is parallel to x- axis, so its y- coordinates will be equal.

So the distance between L and Q is the difference between their x- coordinates.

Distance between P and S is = 3 - (-2) = 5 units.
