Given points are (13,1) and (-2,15) . We can find the distance between them using the distance formula.

Distance Formula:-


\sf \longrightarrow d =√((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

Now using this, we have ;


\longrightarrow d = √((-2-13)^2+(15-1)^2)\\


\longrightarrow d =√((-15)^2+(14)^2)\\


\longrightarrow d =√(225 +196)\\


\longrightarrow d =√(421)=\boxed{20.51}

And we are done!
