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 is used to determine the distance, d, between two points. If the coordinates of the two points are (x 1, y 1) and (x 2, y 2), the distance equals the square root of x 2 â x 1 squared + y 2 â y 1 squared. The distance formula is derived by creating a triangle and using the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse of the triangle is the distance between the two points.
