What is the distance between (1,-5) and (-3,6)

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sqrt{137}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

We have the points (1, -5) and (-3, 6). Substitute:

$d=\sqrt{(6-(-5))^2+(-3-1)^2}=\sqrt{11^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{121+16}=\sqrt{137}$
