Math Calculators
Distance Calculator
Calculate distance and midpoint between two points in 2D or 3D space.
What is the Distance Calculator & How does it work?
The Distance Calculator determines the straight-line distance between two points in either a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional coordinate system. This is useful in various fields such as geometry, physics, and engineering.For two points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) in 2D space, the distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem: \(d = \sqrt{(x2 – x1)^2 + (y2 – y1)^2}\). In 3D space, with points A(x1, y1, z1) and B(x2, y2, z2), the formula extends to include the z-axis: \(d = \sqrt{(x2 – x1)^2 + (y2 – y1)^2 + (z2 – z1)^2}\).
\(d = \sqrt{(x2 – x1)^2 + (y2 – y1)^2 + (z2 – z1)^2}\)
d = distance, x, y, z = coordinates of points A and B
