Answer:
[tex]l(AB)=5\ units[/tex]
is the distance between the point A and point B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
A ≡ (x₁, y₁) ≡ (-9 , -8 )
B ≡ (x₂, y₂) ≡ (-6 , -4 )
Now by Pythagoras Distance formula we have
a² + b² = c²
[tex]l(AB) = \sqrt{((x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} )}\\\\l(AB) = \sqrt{((-6--9)^{2}+(-4--8)^{2} )}\\\\l(AB)=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(4)^{2} }\\\\l(AB) =\sqrt{25} \\\\l(AB) = 5\ units[/tex]
