We have by definition, the formula to find the distance between two points, is given by:
d = root ((x2-x1) ^ 2 + (y2-y1) ^ 2)
The ordered pairs are:
(x1, y1) = (- 3, -2)
(x2, y2) = (2,4)
By applying the formula we have:
d = root ((2 - (- 3)) ^ 2 + (4 - (- 2)) ^ 2)
d = root (61)
d = 7.8
Answer:
the distance between points is:
d = 7.8 units
