The shortest path distance is a straight line. Click Home tab Utilities panel Measure drop-down Distance. D x2 - x12 y2 - y12 z2 - z1212 1 d distance m inches.
We then add together the squares of those two distances.

Haversine formula to find distance between two points on a sphere 10 Aug 18 Check whether it is possible to join two points given on circle such that distance between them is k. Draw a right-angled triangle with the line formed by the points the distance between the two points can be calculated by finding the horizontal x 2 - x 1 and vertical distances y 2 - y 1. In a three dimension plane there are three axis that are x-axis with its coordinates as x1 y1 z1 y-axis with its coordinates as x2 y2 z2 and z-axis with its coordinates as x3 y3 z.
