To find the length between the points \((-1, 6)\) and \((5, -2)\), we can use the distance formula, which is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem. The distance formula is given by:

\[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]

Here, \((x_1, y_1) = (-1, 6)\) and \((x_2, y_2) = (5, -2)\).

Now we can calculate the values:

\[ x_2 - x_1 = 5 - (-1) = 5 + 1 = 6 \] \[ y_2 - y_1 = -2 - 6 = -8 \]

Now plug these into the distance formula:

\[ d = \sqrt{(6)^2 + (-8)^2} \]

Calculating the squares:

\[ d = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} \]

Therefore,

\[ d = 10 \]

So the length between the points \((-1, 6)\) and \((5, -2)\) is \(10\).

The final answer is 10.
