The distance between two points in a coordinate plane is found using the distance formula:
distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
In this case, the two points are (-13, 12) and (-13, -77).
Using the distance formula:
distance = √((-13 - -13)^2 + (-77 - 12)^2)
distance = √(0^2 + (-89)^2)
Simplifying, we have:
distance = √(0 + 7921)
distance = √7921
distance = 89
Therefore, the distance from (-13, 12) to (-13, -77) is 89.
