Solved by pluggable solver: Distance Formula to determine length on coordinate plane

The distance (d) between two points is given by the following formula:
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%28x2-x1%29%5E2+%2B+%28y2-y1%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " Thus in our case, the required distance is
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%28-1-2%29%5E2+%2B+%28-5-5%29%5E2%29=+10.4403065089106+\"$
