What is the distance between (–5, –2) and (–5, –8)?

On a coordinate plane, points are at (negative 5, negative 2) and (negative 5, negative 8).

–10 units

–6 units

6 units

10 units

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, - 8)

d =

  =

  =

  = 6

180

step-by-step explanation:

12-2=10

20-2=18

18x10=180
