Coordinate Planes

Would the distance in this case be just the differences in the X and Y values?

its C

in coordinate geometry distance between 2 points is given by

Sqrt [ ( x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 ]

in our context it can be written as

sqrt [( c-a)^2 + ( d-b)^2 ]

hence we need both the statements

hope that helps..
