Understanding Distance in a Video Game

Alyssa's wizard character in a video game is on a quest to defeat an evil sorcerer and his minions. The game uses x and y coordinates to locate characters. Alyssa's wizard can attack minions within a 6-meter range. The video explains how to calculate distances using the Pythagorean theorem to determine which minions are within reach. All minions are within range, with Minion A being the closest and Minion B the farthest.
