Explanation:

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a triangle.

You could either add a point at (3,2) or (6,9) to make a right triangle and get the same answer, but for the sake of looking at it right-side-up, I'd use (3,2).

Now, you can use the distance vertically (y coordinate) from the top point to the bottom point ( 9 to 2 ) as your first side length. 9-2= 7, so 7 is that side length.

Then, you can use the distance horizontally (x coordinate) from the bottom left point (3,2) to the bottom right point (6,2). 6-3= 3, so 3 is that side length.

Now for the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 =c^2)

7^2 + 3^2 = c^2

49+9=c^2

58=c^2

c=
`√(58\\\\)` is the distance between points
