distance #=color(blue)(sqrt(200#

#(-9,0) = color(blue)(x_1,y_1#

#(5,2) = color(blue)(x_2, y_2#

Distance is calculated using formula:

distance #=sqrt((x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2#

#=sqrt((5-(-9))^2 + (2-0)^2#

#=sqrt((5+9)^2 + (2)^2#

#=sqrt((14)^2 + (2)^2#

#=sqrt(196 + 4#

#=color(blue)(sqrt(200#
