Given Coordinates: x1 = 0 y1 = 0, x2 = 2 y2 = -6
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(2 − 0)2 + (-6 − 0)2
d = √22 + (-6)2
d = √4 + 36
d = √40
d = √4 * 10
d = √4 * √10
d = 2√10
Therefore, the distance between the points (0, 0) and (2, -6) is equal to 2√10
Note: As a decimal number, 2√10 ≈ 6.3245553203368
