Answer

58 units

Explanation:


\rm{Let \: F( - 3 \:, 8) \longrightarrow \: (x1 \:, y1)}


\rm{G(4 \: 5) \longrightarrow \: (x2 \: ,y2)}


\underline{ \text{ \: Finding \: the \: distance} }:


\boxed{ \rm{distance = \sqrt{ {(x1- x2)}^(2) + {(y1 - y2)}^(2) } }}

⇢√ ( - 3 - 4 )² + ( 8 - 5 )²

⇢√( -7 )² + ( 3 )²

⇢ √ 49 + 9

⇢ √58 units

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
