[tex]~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ C(\stackrel{x_1}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{9})\qquad G(\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{4})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ CG=\sqrt{[-2 - (-5)]^2 + [4 - 9]^2}\implies CG=\sqrt{(-2+5)^2+(-5)^2} \\\\\\ CG=\sqrt{3^2 +(-5)^2}\implies CG=\sqrt{34}[/tex]
