Concept explainers
To calculate: The distance between the points
The distance between the points
Calculation:
Consider the provided points
Join the points and the graph as shown below,
The graph will be a straight line.
Consider the provided points
If
Use the above formula to find the distance for the points
Therefore, the distance is
Now, to calculate the mid-point of the line segment joining the points
If
Now, apply the above formula for points
Thus, the mid-point of the points
Hence, the distance between the points
