Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter a

Step-by-step explanation:

To solved this problem, I suggest to draw the points, and after that draw a right triangle, the distance from A to B will be the hypotenuse, and the other sides will be the legs of the triangle.

C = hypotenuse

a and b will be the legs

from the draw a = 4 units

                        b = 3 units

then

      c2 = a2 + b2

      c2 = 4² + 3²

      c² = 16 + 9

       c² = 25

       c = 5 units
