To find the distance between the two points \((-13, 12)\) and \((-13, 77)\), we can use the distance formula. However, since both points have the same x-coordinate, we can simply find the distance by subtracting the y-coordinates.

The distance \( d \) is calculated as follows:

\[
d = |y_2 - y_1|
\]

In this case:

- \(y_1 = 12\)
- \(y_2 = 77\)

Now, substitute the values into the formula:

\[
d = |77 - 12| = |65| = 65
\]

Thus, the distance from \((-13, 12)\) to \((-13, 77)\) is \(65\) units.
