Question
Given the x, y coordinates of two points in rectangular space (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), write a program to calculate (see instructions on board for equations) The distance between the two points The slope of the line The intercept of the line with the y axis The equation of the line The program should prompt (ask) the user for x1, y1, x2, y2 and output as in the following example output (your output should be similar in format to the output below) The distance between the two point is: 4 The slope is: -1.5 The intercept is: 3.6 The equation of the line is: Y = -1.5 X + 3.6Explanation / Answer
x1 = input("x1");
y1 = input("y1");
x2 = input("x2");
y2 = input("y2");
distance = sqrt((x1-x2)*(x1-x2) + (y1-y2) * (y1 - y2));
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1);
c = y1 - m * x1;
dis = ["The distance between the two points is:",num2str(distance)] ;
disp(dis)
dis = ["The slope is: ",num2str(m)];
disp(dis)
dis = ["The intercept is: ",num2str(c)];
disp(dis)
dis = ["The equation of the line is: Y = ",num2str(m)," X + ",num2str(c)];
disp(dis)
