Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the length of the line segment connecting the points (1, 2) and (1, 5)?
  • Step 1: Identify the two points given in the question. The points are (1, 2) and (1, 5).
  • Step 2: Notice that both points have the same x-coordinate, which is 1. This means the line segment is vertical.
  • Step 3: To find the length of the line segment, we only need to look at the y-coordinates of the two points.
  • Step 4: Write down the y-coordinates: y1 = 2 (from the first point) and y2 = 5 (from the second point).
  • Step 5: Calculate the difference between the y-coordinates: y2 - y1 = 5 - 2.
  • Step 6: Perform the subtraction: 5 - 2 = 3.
  • Step 7: The length of the line segment connecting the two points is 3.
