P1=(-1,3) and P2=(5,-1)

Find the distance from p1 to P2

7.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

P1=(-1,3) and P2=(5,-1)

Distance between two points :

d = Sqrt[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

x1 = - 1 ; y1 = 3

x2 = 5 ; y2 = - 1

d = Sqrt[(5 - (-1))² + ((-1) - 3)²]

d = Sqrt[(5 + 1)² + (-1 - 3)²]

d = sqrt[(6)^2 + (-4)^2]

d = sqrt(36 + 16)

d = sqrt(52)

d = 7.21

the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus is the exact same as the distance from that point to the directrix.

if you could provide answer choices that might allow me to answer the question easier if my above answer isn't an option! (:
