Could someone tell me what the distance between points a(-6,-8) b(6,8) would be.

To calculate the distance between two points, we can use a formula that is a variation Pythagorean Theorem. Look:

"d" represents the distance and coordinates are expressed as follows: (x, y)

Let's go to the calculations.

The answer is 20 u.c.

based on context clues you gave i'm assuming the answer would be c.

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
