I NEED HELP ASAP Find the distance between the points (2, 3) and (2, 8).

Use the distance formula: x=sqrt((x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2)

Plug in ordered pairs for the variables:

x=sqrt((2-2)^2+(8-3)^2)

x=sqrt(0+25)

x=sqrt(25)

x=5 or -5

Since distance is ALWAYS positive, it's 5 units

Hope this helped!
