Fórmula
2D: d = √((x₂−x₁)² + (y₂−y₁)²). 3D: d = √((x₂−x₁)² + (y₂−y₁)² + (z₂−z₁)²). Midpoint: M = ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2).
Perguntas Frequentes
How do you calculate the distance between two points?
In 2D, use d = √((x₂−x₁)² + (y₂−y₁)²). In 3D, add (z₂−z₁)² under the square root.
What is the midpoint formula?
The midpoint M = ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2) in 2D, with (z₁+z₂)/2 added for 3D.
Can I use negative coordinates?
Yes. The formula works with any real-number coordinates, positive or negative.
What is this formula based on?
The distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem applied to the coordinate differences.
