Given Coordinates: x1 = -10 y1 = 6, x2 = 1 y2 = -4
Distance Formula: d = √(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(1 − (-10))2 + (-4 − 6)2
d = √(1 + 10)2 + (-4 − 6)2
d = √112 + (-10)2
d = √121 + 100
d = √221
Therefore, the distance between the points (-10, 6) and (1, -4) is equal to √221
Note: As a decimal number, √221 ≈ 14.866068747319
