To find the distance between two points, we can use the distance formula:

d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

In this case, we want to find the distance between A(2, 14) and B(10, 3).

x1 = 2, y1 = 14
x2 = 10, y2 = 3

Plugging these values into the distance formula:

d = sqrt((10 - 2)^2 + (3 - 14)^2)
= sqrt(8^2 + (-11)^2)
= sqrt(64 + 121)
= sqrt(185)
≈ 13.6

Therefore, the distance between A(2, 14) and B(10, 3) is approximately 13.6 units.
