Hey! So you are going to find the coordinates of P and R
P is (4,0) R is (-6,-4)
Then you can plug it into this formula: (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2
Using P and R coordinates that’s:
(4- -6)^2 + (0- -4)^2
10^2 + 4^2
100 + 16=
116
Then you are going to find the square root
So 116 square root is 10.8 rounding to the nearest tenth
Hope this helps!
