Tutorials--Distance Formula
This document provides 21 examples of using the Distance Formula to calculate the distance between two points with different coordinates. The Distance Formula uses the Pythagorean Theorem as the basis for finding the distance between any two points given their x- and y-coordinates. Each example solves for the distance between points located in different quadrants or along the x- or y-axis.
