उत्तर
`sqrt(41)` units
Explanation:
Given points are (– 5, 4) and (0, 0).
Distance = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
Here, x1 = – 5, y1 = 4, x2 = 0, y2 = 0
∴ Distance = `sqrt((0 - (- 5))^2 + (0 - 4)^2`
= `sqrt(5^2 + 4^2)`
= `sqrt(25 + 16)`
= `sqrt(41)`
Thus, the distance is `sqrt(41)` units.

Find distance between point Q(3, –7) and point R(3, 3)
Solution: Suppose Q(x1, y1) and point R(x2, y2)
x1 = 3, y1 = –7 and x2 = 3, y2 = 3
Using distance formula,
d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square - 100)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(Q, R) = `square`
