find the distance between the points:
\n" ); document.write( "a(2,5) and b(4,-1)
\n" ); document.write( "The distance formula is: $\"highlight%28d=sqrt%28%28x2-x1%29%5E2%2B%28y2-y1%29%5E2%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(x1,y1)=(2,5) and (x2,y2)=(4,-1)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%284-2%29%5E2%2B%28-1-5%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%282%29%5E2%2B%28-6%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%284%2B36%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%2840%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%284%29%2Asqrt%2810%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=2%2Asqrt%2810%29\"$ approximately 6.3246
