Distance Calculator

Find the distance between two 2D or 3D coordinate points.

Formula & Methodology

Distance between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) = sqrt((x2−x1)² + (y2−y1)²); in 3D, add (z2−z1)².

Worked Example

The distance between (1,2) and (4,6) is 5.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it support 3D points?

Yes. Enter three coordinates per point to compute the 3D Euclidean distance.

Can it find the midpoint?

Yes. The midpoint is the average of each coordinate pair.

What units does it use?

It uses the units of your coordinates; keep them consistent.
