Answer:
√(58)

The distance between the coordinates of the two points is measured by the Distance formula

Explanation:

The distance between two points P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2) is measured by Distance formula i.e Distance=
\sqrt{}(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

So, the distance between the two points P(5,-3) and Q(2,4) can be measured by

Distance PQ =
\sqrt{}(2-5)²+(4-(-3))²

PQ =
\sqrt{} (-3)²+7²

PQ=
\sqrt{} 9+49

PQ=
\sqrt{}58

So,the distance of PQ is
√(58)
