To solve this, we can use the distance formula.

Distance =

\sqrt{(x2 - x1) {}^(2) + (y2- y1) {}^(2) }

The two coordinates, (2,0) and (2,4) are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) respectively.

We can now solve by substituting.

Distance=

\sqrt{ {(2 - 2)}^(2) + {(4 - 0)}^(2) }

Solve the numbers.

√(16)
= 4

Therefore, your answer is 4.
