Which expression gives the distance between the points (2,5) and (-4, 8)? A. (2+4)2 +(5-8)2
B. (2-4)2 +(5-8)
C. /(2+4)2 + (5 - 8)2
D. (2-4)2 +(5-8)

A. (2+4)² +(5-8)²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find then distance between two points, we will follow the steps below;

write down the formula

D = √(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²

(-4, 8)

x₁=-4

y₁ = 8

(2,5)

x₂=2

y₂=5

we can now proceed to insert the values into the formula

D = √(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²

   = √(2+4)²+(5-8)²

    =√(6)² + (-3)²

   =√36+9

   =√45

Therefore the expression which gives the distance between two the two points is  (2+4)² +(5-8)²
