The distance between the points (9, –6) and (–4, 7) will be 13√2. Then the correct option is C.
The shortest distance (length of the straight line segment's length connecting both given points) between points ( p,q) and (x,y) is:
D² = (x - p)² + (y - q)²
The points are (9, –6) and (–4, 7). Then the distance will be
D² = (-4 - 9)² + (7 + 6)²
D² = 13² + 13²
D² = 169 + 169
D² = 338
D = √338
D = 13√2
