Given Coordinates: x1 = 1 y1 = 2, x2 = 4 y2 = 6
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(4 − 1)2 + (6 − 2)2
d = √32 + 42
d = √9 + 16
d = √25
d = 5
Therefore, the distance between the points (1, 2) and (4, 6) is equal to 5
