The length of a line is not necessarily a practical value as a line goes on for ever. The length of a line is infinite. However, the length of a line segment is of more value and is a finite value. Any time we measure how long a package is or how long our table is, we are taking the length of a line segment. Learn the formula for finding the length of a line segment when given two points in either 2 dimensions or in 3 dimensions.

We’re always considering distance when travel. We are looking for the shortest distance but we are restricted by roads or whatever form of transportation we choose to use. The shortest distance between any two point is, however, a straight line. Given two points we look at the formula for finding the shortest distance between two point, or the distance formula.
