Answer:
hi there!
The correct answer is: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula: [tex]\sqrt{(x1-x2)^{2} + (y1-y2)^{2} }[/tex]
and since the two points given are: (2,1) and (5,5)
you plug in the points and you get: 5
[tex]\sqrt{(2-5)^{2} + (1-5)^{2} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{(-3)^{2} + (-4)^{2} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{9+16}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{25 } = 5[/tex]
