Find the distance between the points LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left( -67, \  63\right) and LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left( 98, \  115\right) .

The distace formula gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle d=\sqrt{ ((98)-(-67))^2 + ((115)-(63))^2 }=\sqrt{ 27225 + 2704 } . Simplifying gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle d = 173 .
