Find the distance between the points (-3, -6) and (5,9).
Hint: Use the Pythagorean theorem.

The distance between the points (-3, -6) and (5, 9) is 15 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

First, we need to find the distance between the two x-coordinates. For this, we need to count the distance from 0 to another point. Then we just add them together.

i.e.

-3 to get to 0 takes 3 units

0 to 5 takes 5 units

3+5=8 units

Just do the same for y-coordinate

From -6 to 0 takes 6 units

0 to 9 takes 9 units

6+9 = 15 units

Therefore, we get the base and height.

Now using the Pythagoras' Theorem to find the distance:

c² = 8² + 15²

c² = 289

As the distance can not be negative.

so

Thus, the distance between the points (-3, -6) and (5, 9) is 15 units.

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox
