Calculate the distance between:
(2, 4, 6) and (3, 5, 7)
Also calculate the parametric and symmetric forms
Distance formula for 3-D points
Distance = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 + (z2 - z1)2
Distance = √(3 - 2)2 + (5 - 4)2 + (7 - 6)2
Distance = √12 + 12 + 12
Distance = √1 + 1 + 1
Distance = √3
Distance = 1.7320508075689
Parametric Equation Form:
(x,y,z) = (x0,y0,z0) + t(a,b,c)
Plugging in our numbers, we get:
(x,y,z) = (2,4,6) + t(3 - 2,5 - 4,7 - 6)
(x,y,z) = (2,4,6) + t(1,1 ,1)
x = 2 + t
y = 4 + t
z = 6 + t
Symmetric Equation Form:
Plugging in our numbers, we get:
Final Answers
Distance = 1.7320508075689
(x - 2)/1, (y - 4)/1(z - 6)/1
What is the Answer?
Distance = 1.7320508075689
(x - 2)/1, (y - 4)/1(z - 6)/1
