Answer 1

To apply the Pythagorean Theorem, we need to find the difference in coordinates for each axis.

For the x-axis:
4 - (-2) = 6

For the y-axis:
1 - (-1) = 2

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the length between the two points:

Length = √(6^2 + 2^2)
Length = √(36 + 4)
Length = √40
Length ≈ 6.32

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the length between the two points is approximately 6.32.
