Enter the X, Y, and Z coordinates of two points. The calculator will return the distance between those two points. If the point is only in the X Y plane, leave the Z section blank.

## Distance Formula

The following formula is used to find the distance between two points.

D = √[ ( X2-X1)^2 + (Y2-Y1)^2) + (Z2-Z1)^2)

• Where X2 and X1 are the x coordinates
• Y2 and Y1 are the y coordinates
• Z2 and Z1 are the z coordinates

## What is the distance between two points?

The distance between two points is calculated using the formula above.

## How to calculate the distance between two points?

How to find the distance between two point

1. First, determine the x coordinates

This will be the x coordinates of the two points.

2. Next, determine the y coordinates

This will be the y coordinates of the two points.

3. Next, determine the z coordinates

If there are z coordinates for the points, record them accordingly.

4. Calculate

Calculate the distance between points by using the formula above.
