Given Coordinates: x1 = -1 y1 = -2, x2 = 1 y2 = 0
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(1 − (-1))2 + (0 − (-2))2
d = √(1 + 1)2 + (0 + 2)2
d = √22 + 22
d = √4 + 4
d = √8
d = √4 * 2
d = √4 * √2
d = 2√2
Therefore, the distance between the points (-1, -2) and (1, 0) is equal to 2√2
Note: As a decimal number, 2√2 ≈ 2.8284271247462
