the distance between (-12,7) and (10,-3)
----------------------
The distance between 2 points is the sqrt of the (difference in x)^2 + the (difference in y)^2.
= sqrt%2822%29%5E2%2B%2810%29%5E2%5D%5D%5D%0D%0A=+%7B%7B%7Bsqrt%28484+%2B+100%29
= sqrt%28584%29
= 2sqrt%28146%29
Only the differences matter, not the signs, since it's squared.
