Distance between points (-3, -6) and (5, 10)

Given Coordinates: x₁ = -3  y₁ = -6,  x₂ = 5  y₂ = 10
Distance Formula: d = √(x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²
Substitute the given coordinates into the Distance Formula and Simplify:
d = √(5 − (-3))² + (10 − (-6))²
d = √(5 + 3)² + (10 + 6)²
d = √8² + 16²
d = √64 + 256
d = √320
d = √64 * 5
d = √64 * √5
d = 8√5
Therefore, the distance between the points (-3, -6) and (5, 10) is equal to 8√5
Note: As a decimal number, 8√5 ≈ 17.888543819998
