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:

d=sqrt%28%28x1-x2%29%5E2+%2B+%28y1-y2%29%5E2%29

Thus in our case, the required distance is
d=sqrt%28%28-3-4%29%5E2+%2B+%280-0%29%5E2%29=+7+
