B. 4
C. 5
D. 6
E. 7
Calculation:
Plot given points on a graph, and try to draw a right triangle.
The triangle will rise 4 units and run 3 units, meaning the legs of the triangle will be 3 and 4.
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side,
The third side of the triangle must be 5 which is the hypotenuse and length also.
So the correct answer is C.
