Answer:

Use the distance, magnitude, norm, whatever formula.

You do this by using pythagorean and plugging in your values.

(6 - 0, -2 - 6) --> We subtract the individual x and y values from the two in order to find the line between the two.

Doing so will get you:

(6, -8)

sqrt(6^2 + (-8^2))

Now take the square and square root of them,

this gets you 10.

The distance is 10.
