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