Suppose i want to find the distance between the two points, negative 7, 6, and negative 3 .2.
00:07
So one way to help figure this out is let's say i had my two points on an x, y value, negative 7, negative 6, plotted them roughly, and negative 3, 2.
00:20
What i can do, i want to find this distance between them.
00:24
I want to find this distance, but i can draw a right triangle.
00:28
Right.
00:30
My vertical length would be the difference in my y values 2 minus negative 6.
00:37
This is a distance of 8.
00:39
The horizontal length would be a difference in my x values.
00:43
Negative 7 minus negative 3 would be positive 4.
00:47
I'm going to keep the positive values.
00:49
And then i need to find this distance c.
00:51
So i see that i have a right triangle, no two sides solving for the third...
