Answer:
[tex]2\sqrt{10}[/tex] units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula states that [tex]D(x_{1} ,y_{1})(x_{2},y_{2} )=\sqrt{(x_{2} } -x_{1} )^2+(y_{2}-y_{1} )^2\\[/tex].
We then plug in our points and compute.[tex]\sqrt{(4-(-2))^2+(3-1)^2} =\sqrt{6^2+2^2} =\sqrt{36+4} =\sqrt{40} =\sqrt{2^2*2*5} =2*\sqrt{2*5} =2\sqrt{10}[/tex]
The * represents multiplication.
