\qquad \qquad \huge \pink {\sf{☁Answer☁}} \\ \\


\rule{60mm}{2.2pt}


\large \purple{ \rm{Given ↦}} \\

  • A ( -6 , -2 ) ( x1 , y1 )
  • B ( 2 , 4 ) ( x2 , y2 )


\rule{60mm}{2.2pt}


\large \purple{ \rm{By \: DISTANCE \: FORMULA ↦}} \\ \\ \rm{AB =\sqrt{( x2-x1)^(2) +(y2-y1) ^(2) }}


\rule{60mm}{2.2pt}

Substituting values


\bold {AB= \sqrt{( - 6 - 2 )^(2) + ( - 2 - 4) ^(2)} } \\ \\ \bold {AB= \sqrt{( - 8) ^(2) + ( - 6) ^(2) }} \\ \\ \bold {AB= \sqrt {(64) + (36)} } \\ \\ \bold {AB= √((100))} \\ \\ \bold {AB= 10 \: units.}
