The distance between the points (0, 5) and (-5, 0) is

1. 5 units

2. $5\sqrt{2}$ units

3. $2\sqrt{5}$ units

4. 10 units

Let, A = (0, 5) and B = (-5, 0).

By distance formula,

$d = \sqrt{(x$2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2} \\[1em] \therefore AB = \sqrt{(-5 - 0)^2 + (0 - 5)^2} \\[1em] = \sqrt{(-5)^2 + (-5)^2} \\[1em] = \sqrt{25 + 25} \\[1em] = \sqrt{50} \\[1em] = 5\sqrt{2}\text{ units}.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
