- Distance formula for points.
A soccer player passes the ball from a pointthat is 18 yards from the endline and 12 yards from the sideline. A teammate who is 42 yards from the same endline and 50 yards from the same sideline receives the pass. How long is the pass?
I am suppose to use the distance formula for points. I will set it but, before finding the length of the pass, I want to know if my set up is correct.
Let d = distance between two points on the xy-plane.
Our points in the form (x, y) are:
(18, 12), (42, 50)
See attachment.
