Distance Formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1})^{2}}

$d=\sqrt{(\color{#9202AA}{x_2}-\color{#9202AA}{x_1})^2+(\color{#00880A}{y_2}-\color{#00880A}{y_1})^2}$

First, label the given coordinates

$A($ $-1$

$,$ $2$

$) = A($ $x_1$

$,$ $y_1$

$)$

$B($ $5$

$,$ $4$

$) = B($ $x_2$

$,$ $y_2$

$)$

Solve using the Distance Formula

$\text(Distance)$	$=$	$\sqrt{(\color{#9202AA}{x_2}-\color{#9202AA}{x_1})^2+(\color{#00880A}{y_2}-\color{#00880A}{y_1})^2}$	Distance Formula
	$=$	$\sqrt{(\color{#9202AA}{5}-\color{#9202AA}{(-1)})^2+(\color{#00880A}{4}-\color{#00880A}{(2)})^2}$	Plug in the coordinates
	$=$	$sqrt(6^2 + 2^2)$	Simplify
	$=$	$sqrt(36 + 4)$
	$=$	$sqrt(40)$	Take the square root
	$=$	$6.32455532$
	$=$	$6.32$ units	Round to two decimal places

$\text(Distance) =6.32 \text(units)$
