The formulae to find a distance is
d=\sqrt{(x_(2) -x_(1))^(2) +(y_(2) -y_(1))^(2) }

What is the distance?

Distance is a measure of how far apart two things or points are, either numerically or occasionally qualitatively. Distance can refer to a physical length or an estimate based on other factors in physics or common usage.


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

Whereby


(x_(1) , y_(1)) = coordinates of the first point


(x_(2) , y_(2)) = coordinates of the second point
