This is so true.
Distance has two meanings. One is a distance extent and the other is a direction vector.
In a measure, the value is constantly positive. For instance, the separation from Houston to New York City is constantly 1420 miles, never - 1420 miles.
However, when discussing vectors that have both a direction and a distance esteem, at that point flying from Houston to NYC on a compass direction of 50 degrees it is 1420 miles yet on a compass heading of 230 degrees, it would be - 1420 miles.
