Answer 1

Answer 2

\( \Large\text{Distance} = \sqrt{ (\color{cyan}{x_2} -\color{red}{x_1})^2 + (\color{green}{y_2} - \color{orange}{y_1)}^2 } \)

where you have two points
\(\Large (\color{red}{x_1}, \color{orange}{y_1})\) and \(\Large (\color{cyan}{x_2}, \color{green}{y_2})\)

So your two points are

\((\color{red}{0}, \color{orange}{6})\) and \((\color{cyan}{5}, \color{green}{12})\)

Answer 3

Just replace the numbers

I even colored it so that way you know which number goes where

Answer 4

Oh ok
