Question I have to figure out what the person did wrong and correct it))AB=√(6-2)² + [1-(-4)]² = √4² +5² =√16+25 = √41
Step-by-step explanation: I assume the square root always goes across the whole expression, right ? the calculation you provided is correct. there was nothing done wrong here. so, I guess the mistake must have been made with the coordinate numbers in the first place. since I don’t see any graphic or the coordinates of the points, where clearly the distance has to be calculated, I cannot give you the details. based on the calculation, the points would have been A (2, -4) B (6, 1) and I guess the original coordinates must be different somehow. otherwise it would all be correct.
