Answer: 5
The Distance between the coordinates of two points is measured by distance formula.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Distance between the coordinates of two points P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2) is measured by
Distance PQ= [tex]\sqrt{}[/tex](x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
So, the distance between (-1,4 ) and (2,0) can be calculated by
Distance= [tex]\sqrt{}[/tex](2-(-1))²+(0-4)²
= [tex]\sqrt{}[/tex](3)²+(-4)²
=[tex]\sqrt{}[/tex]9+16 = [tex]\sqrt{}[/tex]25 as [tex]\sqrt{}[/tex]25 = 5
Distance = 5
So the distance between the two coordinates is 5.
