Calculate distance from x1, y1, x2, y2.
Formula
sqrt((x2 − x1)² + (y2 − y1)²)
- Enter x1, y1, x2, y2 using consistent units. This tool calculates distance as sqrt((x2 − x1)² + (y2 − y1)²). All geometric dimensions should be positive and in the specified units.
- The main inputs are x1, y1, x2, y2. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Keep comparable quantities in compatible units whenever the formula combines or compares them.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Euclidean Distance
Inputs
- x1: 0
- y1: 0
- x2: 3
- y2: 4
Using x1 = 0, y1 = 0, x2 = 3, y2 = 4, the calculated result is Distance: 5.
