1.

The distance between the points A (0, 6) and B (0, –2) is  (A) 6 (B) 8 (C) 4 (D) 2

Answer»

(B) 8

Distance formula: d2 = (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2

According to the question,

We have,

x1 = 0, x2 = 0

y1 = 6, y2 = – 2

d2 = (0 – 0)2 + ( – 2 – 6)2

d= √((0)2+ (-8)2)

d = √64

d = 8 units

Therefore, the distance between A (0, 6) and B (0, 2) is 8
