1.3



Answer :

The distance between point P and point T is 6.1 units.

Given that point P is located at (-3.7,1.8) and the point T is located at (2.4,1.8).

We are required to find the distance between point P and point T.

Distance is basically a variable which shows how far two points are located. It can be distance between two things also.

Distance between two points is calculated by the following points:

=[tex]\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1} )^{2} +(y_{2} -y_{1} )^{2} }[/tex]  in which [tex](x_{1} ,y_{1} ),(x_{2} ,y_{2} )[/tex] are the points.

The points which are given as P(-3.7,1.9) and T(2.4,1.8).

Distance=[tex]\sqrt{(2.4+3.7)^{2}+(1.8-1.8)^{2} }[/tex]

=[tex]\sqrt{6.1^{2} }[/tex]

=6.1units

Hence the distance between point P and point T is 6.1 units.
