Answer to Question #257270 in Geometry for Nia

Question

Given the graph below, find MN. Round to

the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

The distance Formula: $d =\sqrt{(x2 - x1)\\^2 + (y2 - y1)\\^2 }$

First point M: $(-1,2)$

Second Point N: $(4,0)$

$MN =\sqrt{(4 - (-1))\\^2 + (0 - 2)\\^2 }\\ MN=\sqrt{(5)\\^2 + (-2)\\^2 }\\ MN=\sqrt{25+4}\\ MN=\sqrt{29}\\ MN= 5.39 (nearest\ hundredths)$
