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:
Calculating one-dimensional distance between two points when you know the value for each is a cinch. Simply use the formula d = |x2 - x1| . In this formula, you subtract x 1 from x 2, then take the absolute value of your answer to find the distance between x 1 and x 2.Typically, you'll want to use the one-dimensional distance formula when your two points lie on a number line or axis.1  Note that this formula uses absolute values (the  | |  symbols).imply use the formula d = â((x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2) . In this formula, you subtract the two x coordinates, square the result, subtract the y coordinates, square the result, then add the two intermediate results together and take the square root to find the distance between your two points.
