Distance Between Two Points

on . Posted in Geometry

The distance between two points using two given coordinate points.

 

Distance between two points (2d) formula
\(\large{ d =  \sqrt{  \left( x_2 - x_1 \right)^2  +  \left( y_2 - y_1 \right)^2 }   }\) 
Symbol English Metric
\(\large{ d }\) = distance \(\large{ in}\) \(\large{ mm}\)
\(\large{ x_1 }\) = x coordinate of first point \(\large{ in}\) \(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ y_1 }\) = x coordinate of first point  \(\large{ in}\) \(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ x_2 }\) = x coordinate of second point  \(\large{ in}\)  \(\large{ mm }\)
\(\large{ y_2 }\) = x coordinate of second point  \(\large{ in}\)  \(\large{ mm }\)
