The distance between two point in the cartesian coordinate system is:

d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2

d^2=(1-1)^2+(18--4)^2

d^2=0+484

d=22 units.

In this case we could have seen that the x coordinate did not change and just said the distance was 18--4=22 units, but that is rarely how you will solve these problems :P

The distance between (1,-4) and (1,18) is 22 units

Distance formula

  • d = √(x₂ - x₁)²+(y₂ - y₁)²

Therefore,

x₁ = 1

x₂ = 1

y₁ = -4

y₂ = 18

Then,

d = √(1-1)² + (18+4)²

d = √484

d = 22 units

Therefore, the distance is 22 units.
