- 4. Distance Formula explanation slide Distance Formula is Distance is a numerical description of how far apart objects are. In physics or everyday discussion, distance may refer to a physical length, or an estimation based on other criteria The steps you take for distance formula is you have to subtract x2-x1 and y2-y1, then square root both answers and add them together. Then finally square root the answer.
