You can use the Pythagorean theorem. Plot the points and draw a triangle. The triangle will have two sides 5 and 6 units long, the hypotenuse will be the distance between the two points.
5² + 6² = 61
The square root of 61 is approximately equal to 7.8.

the formula for the distance between two points is d= the square root of (x1-x2)squared +(y1-y2)squared(sorry couldn’t figure out how to type that on my key board). 36+25=61. the square root of 61 is 7.8
Use the area formula: d = sqrt((x1 – x2)^2 + (y1 – y2)^2) (x1, y1) = (-3, 2) (x2, y2) = (5, -6) d = sqrt((-3 – 5)^2 + (2 – (-6))^2) d = sqrt((-8)^2 + (8)^2) d = sqrt(sixty 4 + sixty 4) d = sqrt(128) d = 8sqrt2 d = 8(a million.40-one) d = 11.3
i think the distance formula is sqrt( (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2)
so sqrt( (8-3)^2 + (2-8)^2)
sqrt (25 + 36)
sqrt61
7.8
