Solved by pluggable solver: Distance between two points in two dimensions

The distance (denoted by d) between two points in two dimensions is given by the following formula:

For more on this concept, refer to Distance formula.

So the distance is 12 units.

Another way you could do this is count from the point (0,-4) up to (0,8) and you'll get 12 units also.
