Answer 2

Answer:

$\sqrt{61} \: unit$

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that distance formula is used to find the distance between two given points

If point A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2)

$AB= \sqrt{ {(x_2 - x_1)}^{2} + {(y_2 - y_1)}^{2} }$

Here one point is (-5,6) and other is origin i.e.(0,0)

So,distance

$= \sqrt{( { - 5 - 0)}^{2} + {(6 -0 )}^{2} } \\ \\ = \sqrt{25 + 36} \\ \\ = \sqrt{61} unit$

Hope it helps you.
