distance formula on a graph. The shortest path distance is a straight line. As may be seen in the graph above the distance from point to point really is the hypotenuse of a right triangle of sides length x2 x1 and y2 y1.
Video transcript - We are asked what is the distance between the following points. As may be seen in the graph above the distance from point to point really is the hypotenuse of a right triangle of sides length x2 x1 and y2 y1. D 58.
Pause this video and see if you can figure it out.
D displaystyle d equals the distance of the line x 1 y 1 displaystyle x_ 1y_ 1. The distance formula is used to find the distance between any two given points. D x 2 x 1 2 y 2 y 1 2 displaystyle d sqrt x_ 2-x_ 1 2 y_ 2-y_ 1 2 where. X 1 y 1 2 5 x 2 y 2 9 8 Step 2.
