The Pythagorean Theorem applies to right-angled triangles and states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. This can be expressed as:

c² = a² + b²

where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

However, from the information provided, it's not clear what the "two points" refer to, or what "responses" or the numbers listed (9, 5.57, 41, 6.40) are intended to represent. If we're dealing with a coordinate grid and these are coordinates or distances between points on the grid, more information would be needed to apply the Pythagorean Theorem accurately.

For example, if we are looking for the distance between two points in a plane with coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), we would use the distance formula that is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem:

distance = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

Without the specific context or clear coordinates of two points, it's not possible to give a correct answer to the question of finding the length between the two points. Please provide additional information or context for a more accurate response.
