Given Coordinates: x1 = -1 y1 = -3, x2 = 1 y2 = 3
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(1 − (-1))2 + (3 − (-3))2
d = √(1 + 1)2 + (3 + 3)2
d = √22 + 62
d = √4 + 36
d = √40
d = √4 * 10
d = √4 * √10
d = 2√10
Therefore, the distance between the points (-1, -3) and (1, 3) is equal to 2√10
Note: As a decimal number, 2√10 ≈ 6.3245553203368
