Find the distance between two points

Front

What is the formula to find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The distance formula is: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)

What does it mean if two points have the same x-coordinate?

Back

It means the points are vertically aligned and the distance between them is the difference in their y-coordinates.
