Answers to calculate the distance between two points.
1. Distance = √((-1 - 2)^2 + (5 - 3)^2) = √(9 + 4) = √13
The distance between (2, 3) and (-1, 5) is approximately √13.
2. Distance = √((0 - (-3))^2 + (-2 - 4)^2) = √(9 + 36) = √45 = 3√5
The distance between (-3, 4) and (0, -2) is 3√5.
3. Distance = √((4 - 1)^2 + (3 - 7)^2) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5
The distance between (1, 7) and (4, 3) is 5.
4. Distance = √((3 - (-5))^2 + (1 - (-2))^2) = √(64 + 9) = √73
The distance between (-5, -2) and (3, 1) is approximately √73.
5. Distance = √((8 - 0)^2 + (6 - 0)^2) = √(64 + 36) = √100 = 10
The distance between (0, 0) and (8, 6) is 10.
6. Distance = √((-4 - 2)^2 + (1 - (-3))^2) = √(36 + 16) = √52 = 2√13
The distance between (2, -3) and (-4, 1) is 2√13.
7. Distance = √((5 - (-1))^2 + (-3 - 2)^2) = √(36 + 25) = √61
The distance between (-1, 2) and (5, -3) is approximately √61.
8. Distance = √((-2 - 4)^2 + (3 - (-5))^2) = √(36 + 64) = √100 = 10
The distance between (4, -5) and (-2, 3) is 10.
9. Distance = √((-2 - 3)^2 + (-4 - 2)^2) = √(25 + 36) = √61
The distance between (3, 2) and (-2, -4) is approximately √61.
10. Distance = √((0 - (-6))^2 + (9 - 1)^2) = √(36 + 64) = √100 = 10
The distance between (-6, 1) and (0, 9) is 10.
11. Distance = √((7 - 2)^2 + (-2 - 5)^2) = √(25 + 49) = √74
The distance between (2, 5) and (7, -2) is approximately √74.
12. Distance = √((2 - (-3))^2 + (4 - (-1))^2) = √(25 + 25) = √50 = 5√2
The distance between (-3, -1) and (2, 4) is 5√2.
13. Distance = √((0 - (-4))^2 + (3 - 1)^2) = √(16 + 4) = √20 = 2√5
