Find Distance Between Points
The Distance Formula
2D Distance (Euclidean)
The distance between two points in a plane, derived from the Pythagorean theorem.
3D Distance
Extended to three dimensions for points in space.
Midpoint Formula
The point exactly halfway between two points.
Connection to Pythagorean Theorem
The distance formula is essentially a² + b² = c² where:
- a = horizontal distance (Δx = x₂ - x₁)
- b = vertical distance (Δy = y₂ - y₁)
- c = direct distance between points
