What is the distance between #(-8,1,-3)# and #(1,4,2)#? Algebra Radicals and Geometry Connections Distance Formula 1 Answer 冠廷 李. May 4, 2017 #sqrt115# Explanation: #(x,y,z)&(a,b,c)# the distance formula is #d=sqrt((x-a)^2+(y-b)^2+(z-c)^2)# so #d=sqrt((-8-1)^2+(1-4)^2+(-3-2)^2)# #=sqrt(81+9+25)# #=sqrt115# Answer link Related questions What is the Distance Formula?
