Question

The distance between the points $A(-7,7)$ and $B(-2,-5)$ is

• A. $13$ units
• B. $14$ units
• C. $15$ units
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A $13$ units

Distance between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ can be calculated using the formula $\sqrt{{(x_2-x_1)}^2+{(y_2-y_1)}^2}$
Distance between the points A$(-7,7)$ and B $(-2,-5)=\sqrt{{(-2+7)}^2+{(-5-7)}^2}=\sqrt{25+144}=\sqrt{169}=13$
