When you use the distance Formula you are building a right triangle whose ____ connects two given points....

Answer:
option C
Step-by-step explanation:
When we use the distance formula for two points ( x, y ) and ( x', y¹ )
Then formula is (distance)² = (x - x¹)² + (y - y¹)²
This is quite similar to the formula used in a right angle triangle to determine hypotenuse
(Hypotenuse)² = (base)²+(height)²
Therefore, option C is the answer.
