What is the distance between #(5 ,( pi)/4 )# and #(3 , (11 pi )/6 )#?
1 Answer
Explanation:
To solve this, you need the distance formula between two points which is:
where the first point is
and the second point is
To understand the derivation of this formula follow this link.
It doesn't matter which point is the first point or second point. The difference will always be the same, and when you square the difference in the equation, the negative difference will go away.
E.g. Say
When you square the
Now plug in the two points from the problem.
