Answer :

The length between the two points is 9.2 units.

Given points are:

Q(1,₋5)

P(₋5,2)

Let the two points be denoted as

Q(1,₋5) as (x₁,y₁)

P(₋5,2) as (x₂,y₂)

Distance between two points is calculated as:

d = √(x₂ ₋ x₁)² ₊ (y₂ ₋ y₁)²

d = √(₋5 ₋ 1)² ₊ (2 ₋ (₋5))²

d =  √(₋6)² ₊ (7)²

d =  √36 ₊ 49

d =  √85

d = 9.2

Hence the length of QN is 9.2 units.
