d=sqrt(45)=9*sqrt(5)~~6.71

Explanation:

p_1=(3|0)
p_2=(6|6)
d^2=(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2
d=sqrt((3-6)^2+(0-6)^2)
d=sqrt(9+36)
d=sqrt(45)=9*sqrt(5)~~6.71

I will show the method, you do the math!!

Explanation:

The distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

is given by:

sqrt((x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2)
