Given Coordinates: x1 = 12 y1 = 5, x2 = -12 y2 = -2
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(-12 − 12)2 + (-2 − 5)2
d = √(-24)2 + (-7)2
d = √576 + 49
d = √625
d = 25
Therefore, the distance between the points (12, 5) and (-12, -2) is equal to 25
