Answer to Question #178008 in Microeconomics for Ratna

Question

Find the Euclidean distance between

(i) (2, 5) and (4, 2)

(ii) (1, 3, 4) and (4, 2, -5)

Answer 1

$(2,5)-(4,2)=-2,3$

Euclidean d$= \sqrt{(-2)^2+3^2}=\sqrt{12}$

$(1, 3, 4) - (4, 2, -5)=-4,1,9$

Euclidean d =$\sqrt{(-4)^2+1^2+9^2}=\sqrt{98}$
