In this blog post, you will learn how to calculate the distance between two points using the Google Maps JavaScript API.
Let’s get started with a program. You are given two coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) of a two-dimensional graph. Find the distance between them.
For example:
Input : x1, y1 = (3, 4) | x2, y2 = (7, 7)
Output: 5
To resolve this we will use the distance formula derived from the Pythagorean theorem as shown below.
