The distance formula is square root of (x-a)^2-(x-b)^2

OpenStudy (plasmataco):

Sqrt (-3-2)^2+ (2-2)^2 sry my first equation was wrong there should be a +instead of a - in the middle

OpenStudy (plasmataco):

Which turns into sqrt5^2 which is 5

OpenStudy (plasmataco):

Now we find from (2,2) to (2,-5)

OpenStudy (plasmataco):

Sqrt (2-2)^2+(2--5)^2 so u get sqrt 7^2 so 7

OpenStudy (plasmataco):

Now just add 7 and 5 to get 12
