The distance between the given points (2, -2) and (-4, -7) is √61 units
The distance between two points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) on the coordinate plane is given by:
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
The distance between the given points (2, -2) and (-4, -7) is:
[tex]Distance=\sqrt{(-7-(-2))^2+(-4-2)^2}=\sqrt{25+36}=\sqrt{61}[/tex]
The distance between the given points (2, -2) and (-4, -7) is √61 units
