What is the distance between the points with co-ordinates (3,2) and (7,9)?

This question can be approached using the Pythagoras Theorem, with the line connecting these 2 points being the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle). Side lengths:1) 7-3=4 2) 9-2=7Therefore, the distance can be calculated using 42 + 72 = x2x2 = 65x = 8.06
