Distance and Midpoint Calculator in the Plane

A free online calculator to compute the distance between two points and the midpoint of the line segment joining them in the 2D coordinate plane. Review the Distance and Midpoint Formulas below.

Distance and Midpoint Formulas

The distance \( D \) between two points \( A = (A_x, A_y) \) and \( B = (B_x, B_y) \) is given by the formula:

\[ D = \sqrt{(A_x - B_x)^2 + (A_y - By)^2} \]

The midpoint \( M \) of the segment \( AB \) is given by:

\[ M = \left( \frac{A_x + B_x}{2}, \frac{A_y + B_y}{2} \right) \]

Interactive Calculator

Enter the \( x \) and \( y \) coordinates of points \( A \) and \( B \) and click Calculate. The outputs will display the distance \( D \) and the coordinates of the midpoint \( M \).

Point \( A \) (\( x_1, y_1 \)): (\( x \): , \( y \): )
Point \( B \) (\( x_2, y_2 \)): (\( x \): , \( y \): )
Distance (\( D \)):
Midpoint (\( M \)): (\( x \): , \( y \): )
