Answer:

Distance=√(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2

Explanation:

How to Find Distance Between Two Points?

Note down the coordinates of the two given points in the coordinate plane as, A(x1,y1 x 1 , y 1 ) and B(x2,y2 x 2 , y 2 ).

We can apply the distance formula to find the distance between the two points, d = √[(x2 x 2 − x1 x 1 )2 + (y2 y 2 − y1 y 1 )2]
