What else can I help you with?
Are any points on the perpendicular bisector of a segment equally distant from the 2 endpoints?
All of the points on a perpendicular bisector are equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.
The distance between 2 point is called?
It is simply called the distance between the two points - simple as that. How that distance is measured will depend on the nature of the surface on which the two points are located as well as on the metric for measuring distance that is defined on that space.The common metric in Euclidean space is the Pythagorean distance while on the surface of a sphere (like the Earth, for example), distances are measured along the great arc.
What is between 2 points?
A line segment is between two end points
Distance between two points?
the distance between two points is length
What is the distance between the points (22) and (8-6)?
Points: (2, 2) and (8, -6) Distance: 10
What is the shortest route between 2 points on the surface of a planet?
The shortest route between 2 points on the surface of a planet is a great circle route, which is a path that follows the circumference of a circle formed by the intersection of the planet's surface and a plane passing through its center. This route represents the shortest distance between the two points.
What is the distance between point (-25)(-2-1)?
The shortest distance between the two points is zero
The straight line distance between any two points?
this is supposedly the shortest distance between any 2 points, however if you could bend the space between the two points and fold them together, well then they would be right beside each other
Why is there no such thing as 2 sided polygons?
actually, there is, depending on your definition of polygon, and your definition of a line segment. A line segment is the shortest path btwn two points, right? So take a sphere and pick any two points on that sphere. The shortest path between them on the surface of the sphere would be a "curve" along the surface, but it's the shortest path between the points, so it technally is a line segment. Take two of these line segments that intersect at two points, and there is your two sided polygon!
Are any points on the perpendicular bisector of a segment equally distant from the 2 endpoints?
All of the points on a perpendicular bisector are equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.
How do you find the shortest distance between two parallel lines?
The shortest distance between 2 parallel lines is a perpendicular drawn between 2 parallel lines the diagram shows it clearly 1 parallel line ------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | the vertical line is the shortest distance | | ------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd parallel line
What is distance between 2 points science?
The distance between two points is the shortest path connecting them in a straight line. In mathematics, you can calculate it using the distance formula, which involves the coordinates of the two points. In physics, distance can also refer to the physical separation between two objects or locations.

What is between 2 points?
A line segment is between two end points
What is the distance between points 2 2 and 1 1?
11 points
How do you determine given two lines which share a plane the point on each line where the shortest distance between the two lines is equal to some quantity?
If the two lines are parallel, then the shortest distance between them is a single, fixed quantity. It is the distance between any point on one line along the perpendicular to the line.Now consider the situation where the two lines meet at a point X, at an angle 2y degrees. Suppose you wish to find points on the lines such that the shortest distance between them is 2d units. [The reason for using multiples of 2 is that it avoids fractions].The points are at a distance d*cos(y) from X, along each of the two lines.
Definition of distance between two points?
Depends on the metric defined on the space. The "normal" Euclidean metric for the distance between two points is the length of the shortest distance between them - ie the length of the straight line joining them. If the coordinates of the two points (in 2-dimensions) are (a,b) and (c,d) then the distance between them is sqrt([(a - c)2 + (b - d)2] This can be generalised to 3 (or more) dimensions. However, there are other metrics. One such is the "Manhattan metric" or the "Taxicab Geometry" which was developed by Minkowski. For more information on that, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_metric
