How do you find distance in geometry? - Answers

It depends. For simple shapes there may be formulae which link the lengths of sides, measures of angles and other properties of the shape that enable you to calculate the distance. In 3-dimensional Euclidean space, if the point A has coordinates (u,v,w) and B has coordinates(x,y,z), then the distance AB is sqrt[(x - u)2 + (y - v)2 + (z - w)2] The formula has a similar form in 2 dimension. But distance need not be defined in this fashion - there are other valid metrics. One of them is the Taxicab geometry developed by Minkowski and based on a rectangular grid of roads as in Manhattan.
