$sqrt(4 + (25 π^2)/36)$

When you want to know distance between A and B when $A(x_1, y_1)$ , $B(x_2, y_2)$ , According to Pythagoras' Theorem, You get the distance as

Line $AB=sqrt((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)$

So for your question, $x_1=-3, y_1=(13pi)/12, x_2=-1, y_2=pi/4$

Plug in those four values into $sqrt((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)$

$sqrt((-1-(-3))^2+(pi/4-(13pi)/12)^2)$

$=sqrt(4 + 25/36pi^2)$

What is the distance between (-3 , (13 pi)/12 )(-3 , (13 pi)/12 ) and (-1 , pi/4 )(-1 , pi/4 )?
