Theory & Formula
Distance Formula
The distance between two points is calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.
2D:
\(d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}\)3D:
\(d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2 + (z_2 - z_1)^2}\)Midpoint Formula
The midpoint is the point exactly halfway between two points.
2D:
\(M = \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\right)\)3D:
\(M = \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}, \frac{z_1 + z_2}{2}\right)\)Example
Find distance and midpoint for P₁(1, 2) and P₂(4, 6):
\(d = \sqrt{(4-1)^2 + (6-2)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25} = 5\)\(M = \left(\frac{1+4}{2}, \frac{2+6}{2}\right) = (2.5, 4)\)
