Distance formula for finding out the distance between two points #(x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2)# is

#sqrt ((x_2 -x_1)^2 +(y_2-y_1)^2)#. Using this formula, the distance between the two given points would be

#sqrt (3^2 +4^2)# = #sqrt25# =5

using distance formula #sqrt( (x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2#
#5#

#(x1,y1)=(6,2)# and #(x2,y2)=(3,-2)#

using distance formula
#sqrt((3-6)^2+(-2-2)^2#
#sqrt((-3)^2+(-4)^2#
#sqrt(9+16)#
#sqrt25#
#5#
