To find the distance between points G(-5, -8) and H(3,7) use the distance formula. Also use the distance formula to find the distance between points L(15, 37) and M(42, 73). The distance formula is used to calculate the distance between the points (-19, -16) and (-3, 14).

2. Graph, then find the
distance between:
G(­5, ­8) and H(3,7)
L(15, 37) and M(42, 73)

3. The Distance Formula:
Use the distance formula to find the distance between (15,
37) and (42, 73):
Between (­19, ­16) and (­3, 14):
