\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\ \begin{array}{lllll} &x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\ % (a,b) &({{ 522}}\quad ,&{{ 1322}})\quad % (c,d) &({{ 9000}}\quad ,&{{ -1337}}) \end{array} \\\\\\ % distance value d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ d=√((9000-522)^2+(-1337-1322)^2)\\\\\\ d√(8478^2+(-2659)^2) \\\\\\ d=√(71876484+7070281)\implies d=√(78946765) \\\\\\ d\approx 8885.199209922\implies d\approx 8885.199
