If the distance between two points is 10 units and one point is at (1, 1), what could be the coordinates of the second point?

Back

Possible coordinates could be (1, 11) or (11, 1) or (1 + 10, 1) or (1, 1 + 10).

What is the significance of the distance formula in geometry?

Back

The distance formula is used to determine the length of a line segment between two points in a plane.

Front

How can the distance formula be derived from the Pythagorean theorem?

Back

The distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (distance) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
