Let A = (x1,y1) and B = (x2 ,y2) be any two points.
Then Distance between A And B is given by distance formula.
AB =
Calculation:
Given: Difference of distance from points (3, 0) and (-3, 0) is 4
Consider A = (3, 0) and B = (-3, 0)
Let a point be p(x, y)
As we know distance is always positive
So, |PA - PB| = 4
Squaring both sides, we get
Squaring both sides, we get
