(4,10)(-4,-5)
Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.
Distance=(x2-x1)2+(y2-y1)2
Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.
((-4)-4)2+((-5)-10)2
Subtract 4 from -4.
(-8)2+((-5)-10)2
Raise -8 to the power of 2.
64+((-5)-10)2
Subtract 10 from -5.
64+(-15)2
Raise -15 to the power of 2.
64+225
Add 64 and 225.
289
Rewrite 289 as 172.
172
Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.
