[tex]\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{[2-(-4)]^2+[5-0]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(2+4)^2+(5-0)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{36+25}\implies d=\sqrt{61}\implies d\approx 7.81[/tex]
