distance $=sqrt(293$

The points are
$(7,4) = color(blue)(x_1,y_1)$

$(-10,6) = color(blue)(x_2,y_2)$

The distance is calculated using formula

distance $=sqrt((x_2-x_1)^2+ (y_2-y_1)^2$

$=sqrt((-10-7)^2+ (6-4)^2$

$=sqrt((289+ 4)$

distance $=sqrt(293$

What is the distance between (7, 4)(7, 4) and (-10, 6) (-10, 6) ?
