Apply the pythagorean theorem to find the length between (2, 5) and (7, 3). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.
The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) in a plane can be found using the formula:
Distance = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Therefore, the distance between (2, 5) and (7, 3) can be calculated as follows:
Distance = sqrt((7 - 2)^2 + (3 - 5)^2)
Distance = sqrt(5^2 + (-2)^2)
Distance = sqrt(25 + 4)
Distance = sqrt(29)
Distance ≈ 5.385
Therefore, the length between (2, 5) and (7, 3) is approximately 5.38 units.
