To find distance between two points you use the distance formula.
\[A=(x1,y1)\]\[B=(x2,y2)\]\[D=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}}\]
Use these formulas and you will find the distance between the two points.

:\ Im still confused... @snowsurf
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
For point A look at its x and y coordinates and get those points and do the same for point B. Once you have their coordinates you can use the formula I gave you.
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
First show me the coordinates for point A
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-5,3? @snowsurf

and B i think is 5,-3?
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
Great point A=(-5,3).. B=(5,-3).. Correct you go those.
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
Okay, now put those into the formula I gave you above.

idk how but i got 3,025 @snowsurf
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
Can you show me your work. That is too large, maybe I can find the error
OpenStudy (snowsurf):
\[D=\sqrt{(-5-5 )^{2} + (-3-3)^{2}}\] Your setup should look like this.
