In order to find the distance between two coordinates, you first need to find the difference between the x and y coordinates. In this case, the difference between the x coordinates is 3-(-2) = 5. The difference between the y coordinates is -4-5 = -9. To find the distance you add up the squares of these differences then find the square root. 52 = 25. -92 = 81. 25+81 = 106.

Thus the distance is the square root of 106, or approximately 10.296
