Hello !

Answer:


\boxed{d=√(104)\approx10.2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let
\sf A(x_A,y_A) and
\sf B(x_B,y_B).

The distance between two points A and B is given by :


\sf AB=√((x_B-x_A)^2+(y_B-y_A)^2)

In this question, we can consider
\sf A(0,0) and
\sf B(10,2)

Let's replace the coordinates with their values in the formula :


\sf AB=√((10-0)^2+(2-0)^2)\\AB=√(10^2+2^2)\\AB=√(100+4)\\\boxed{AB=√(104)\approx10.2}

Have a nice day ;)
