The length EF is 13 units

The coordinates of the points are given as:

Point E = (-7,-5)

Point F = (-2,7)

The length EF is calculated using the following distance formula

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

This gives

\(EF =\sqrt{(-2+ 7)^2 + (7+5)^2}\)

\(EF =\sqrt{169}\)

Evaluate the root of 169

\(EF =13\)

Hence, the length EF is 13 units
