The distance formula calculates the straight-line (Euclidean) distance between two points in a 2D coordinate plane. It is derived directly from the Pythagorean theorem — the distance is the hypotenuse of a right triangle formed by the horizontal and vertical differences.

  1. 1Find the horizontal difference: Δx = x₂ − x₁
  2. 2Find the vertical difference: Δy = y₂ − y₁
  3. 3Square both differences and add them
  4. 4Take the square root: d = √(Δx² + Δy²)
