उत्तर
L(5, –8), M(–7, –3)
Let L (x1, y1) and M (x2, y2) be the given points.
∴ x1 = 5, y1 = –8, x2 = –7, y2 = –3
By distance formula,
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt((x_2 – x_1)^2 + (y_2 – y_1)^2)`
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt((–7 – 5)^2 + [–3 – (– 8)]^2)`
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt((–7 – 5)^2 + (–3 + 8)^2)`
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt((–12)^2 + (5)^2)`
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt(144 + 25)`
`"d(L, M)" = sqrt(169)`
d(L, M) = 13 units
∴ The distance between the points L and M is 13 units.

Find distance between point A(–1, 1) and point B(5, –7):
Solution: Suppose A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2)
x1 = –1, y1 = 1 and x2 = 5, y2 = –7
Using distance formula,
d(A, B) = `sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2`
∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square +[(-7) + square]^2`
∴ d(A, B) = `sqrt(square)`
∴ d(A, B) = `square`
