You just have to substitute values of slope and vertical distance in formula and get value of horizontal distance. Similarly, any one of them can be found if other two are given. For instance, if you have a slope given in Percentage as 10 % and a vertical distance of 50 feet, then equation will look like:
The Distance Formula (page 1 of 2). The Distance Formula is a variant of the Pythagorean Theorem that you used back in geometry. Here's how we get from the one to the other: Suppose you're given the two points (2, 1) and (1, 5) , and they want you to find out how far apart they are.The points look like this:he length of the hypotenuse is the distance between the two points. Since this format always works, it can be turned into a formula: Distance Formula: Given the two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) , the distance between these points is given by the formula: Don't let the subscripts scare you.
