Answer:
15 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance d using the distance formula
d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(- 1, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(8, 10)
d = [tex]\sqrt{(8+1)^2}+(10+2)^2[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{9^2+12^2}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{81+144}[/tex]
= [tex]\sqrt{225}[/tex]
= 15
