What is the formula for finding the horizontal distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

Horizontal distance between 2 points represented by  (a,b) and (c,d) is

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Let (a,b) and (c,d ) represent 2 points on the co ordinate plane

We need the formula to find the distance between these 2 points

Step 2 :

The distance between any 2 points on the co ordinate plane can be obtained by taking square root of sum of  squares of the difference of  x co ordinates values and the difference of the y co ordinates values

Hence for the above 2 points the distance would be

Step 3 :

Answer :

Horizontal distance between 2 points represented by  (a,b) and (c,d) is

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
