How do you find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

Answer 1

How to find the distance between two points?

We can find the distance between two points by using the distance formula, (which is an application of the Pythagorean theorem.) We can rewrite the Pythagorean theorem as d=√((x_2-x_1)²+(y_2-y_1)²) to find the distance between any two points.

Solution:

First, subtract the x coordinates and square the result.  Next, subtract the y coordinates and square this. Then, add the two squares.  Take the square root of this sum.

I'm lazy to give an example. sowwy

Answer 2

Answer: $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1} )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2} }$

Step-by-step explanation :

The formula of distance between two points is ($x_{1} ,y_{1}$) and Q]($x_{2} ,y_{2}$) is given by:

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1} )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2} }$
