Answer 1

just use the distance formula . google it

Answer 2

Distance formula from \((x_1,y_1)\) to \((x_2,y_2)\): \[\Large d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1 )^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}\]

Answer 3

Or you can plot the two points (and you'll notice something about them to allow you to find the distance)

Answer 4

Yeah. *cough* Pythagorean Theorem *cough*
