Answer:

EF ≈ 18.68

Explanation:

Based on the info I am given I believe they are asking for the distance between E and F (i think you wrote B by mistake). (d = distance)

d =√ (x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)² --> (this is the distance formula)

d =√ (11 - (-7))² + (3 - (-2))²

d =√ (18)² + (5)²

d =√ 324 + 25

d =√ 349

d ≈ 18.68
