GETS BRAINILIST!!!!!!What is the length of the line segment PQ on the coordinate grid? A fourquadrant coordinate grid from negative 50 to positive 50 in increments of 10 is drawn. Point P is plotted on the ordered pair negative 20, 10. Point Q is plotted on the ordered pair 10, 10. The points are connected by a line. 20 units 30 units 40 units 50 units
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:length of the line segment PQ =30Step-by-step explanation:The image below shows both points in the coordinate grid. To find the length of the line connecting P and Q, we must subtract both points[tex]\overline {PQ}=Q-P=(10,10)-(-20,10)=(30,0)[/tex]Since the difference of the distances is zero in the vertical direction, the length is computed simply as the horizontal differencelength of the line segment PQ =30
