Explaination :

Here we would be using distance formula to calculate the distance between those two points.

Points are,

  • (3,-5) and (-5, -7)

Distance Formula :


  • \huge \large \boxed{\sf{{d \: = \: \sqrt{(x _(2) - x _(1)) {}^(2) \: + \: (y _(2) - y _(1)) {}^(2) }}}} \: \red\bigstar

Putting the values :

  • Refer the attachment.

Additional Information :

Midpoint of two points:-


  • \boxed{ \sf{M \: = \: (x_1 \: + \: x_2 )/(2) \: , \: (y_1 \: + \: y_2 )/(2)}} \: \pink\bigstar

Centroid of a triangle :-


  • \boxed{ \sf{Centroid \: = \: (x_1 \: + \: x_2 \: + \: x_3)/(3) }} \: \pink\bigstar

Answer:

8.24

Explanation:

Given :-

  • Two points (3,-5) and (-5,-7) is given to us.

And we need to find out the distance between the two points . So , here we can use the distance formula to find out the distance. As,


:\implies D = {(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²}


:\implies D =[ (3+5)² +(-5+7)²]


:\implies D =[ 8² +2²]


:\implies D =[ 64 +4]


:\implies D = 8.24

Hence the distance between the two points is 8.24 units .
