In this lesson we’ll look at points that are plotted three-dimensionally and how to find the distance between them. We’ll use the distance formula in three dimensions, plug in the two points, and then simplify the square root in order to calculate the distance.
Read MoreGiven two points A and B in three-dimensional space, we can calculate the distance between them using the distance formula. It doesn’t matter which point is A and which point is B. The fact that we square the differences inside the square root means that all of our values will be positive, which means we’ll get a positive value for the distance between the points.
