The distance between the points is
units.

Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the distance between given points.

[tex] \therefore \: d = \sqrt{ {(5 - 0)}^{2} + ( - 4 - 8)^{2} } \\ \hspace{16 pt}= \sqrt{ {(5)}^{2} + ( - 12)^{2} } \\ \hspace{16 pt}= \sqrt{ 25 + 144 } \\ \hspace{16 pt}= \sqrt{ 169 } \\ \therefore \: d =13 \: units \\ [/tex]
