The points have the same x-coordinate, so they lie on a horizontal line. The distance between them is the difference between their y-coordinates.
2.5 - 1.4 = 1.1
The distance between the two points is 1.1

Answer:
height for the building = 551.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The info given describes the shape of a right triangle.
Thus:
Reference angle = Angle of elevation = 23°
Opposite side = height of the building = ?
Adjacent side = 1,300 ft
Apply trigonometric function, TOA:
Tan 23 = Opp/Adj
Tan 23 = Opp/1,300
1,300 × Tan 23 = Opp
551.817261 = Opp
Opp ≈ 551.8 ft
height for the building = 551.8 ft
0.77875...
which, I'm assuming, they want you to round to the nearest hundredth? So, .78?...
