you use a modification of the pythagorean theorem to find
pythagoreas c^2=a^2+b^2
the easy way is you use the equation
d= √((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)
so input in format (x,y) then
(2,2)
(7,5)
x1=2
y1=2
x2=7
y2=5

d= √((2-7)^2+(2-5)^2)

d= √((-4)^2+(-3)^2)

d= √(16+9)

d= √(25)

d= 5

the distance is 5 units
