Determine the distance between two points on a coordinate axis

The video tutorial explains how to find the distance between two points using the distance formula. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by labeling coordinates on the x and y axes. The teacher then explains the concept of absolute distance and how to calculate it. The distance formula is detailed, and an example calculation is provided to demonstrate its application. The tutorial concludes with a reminder of the formula's importance.
