Understanding the Math
The Distance Formula Calculator computes the result using fundamental principles of mathematics. Calculate the distance between two points in 2D space.
Formula Definition
Result = √(x2-x1² + y2-y1²)
This formula is applied directly to the inputs provided above. Ensure all units are consistent (e.g., all lengths in meters) before calculation to guarantee accuracy.
Example Problem
Given:
- x1 = 8
- y1 = 13
- x2 = 11
- y2 = 2
Solution:
Substitute values into the formula:
Result = √(11-8² + 2-13²)
Quick Notes
- Double-check input units. Inconsistent units (e.g. feet vs meters) will yield incorrect results.
- Calculations are performed with high-precision floating point arithmetic.
