Find Distance Between Two Points

Given A = (a, a) and B = (0, 0), find the distance between A and B.

Let me see.

d(A, B) = distance between points A and B.

d(A, B) = sqrt{(0 - a)^2 + (0 - a)^2}

d(A, B) = sqrt{(-a)^2 + (-a)^2}

d(A, B) = sqrt{a ^2 + a^2}

d(A, B) = sqrt{2a^2}

d(A, B) = a•sqrt{2}

You say?
