\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\ \begin{array}{ccccccccc} &&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\ % (a,b) &&(~ -5 &,& 1~) % (c,d) &&(~ -2 &,& 3~) \end{array}~~ d = √(( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2) \\\\\\ d=√([-2-(-5)]^2+[3-1]^2)\implies d=√((-2+5)^2+(3-1)^2) \\\\\\ d=√(3^2+2^2)\implies d=√(13)
