Distance between (3,9,8) and (5,8,8)?

The distance between three dimensions is similar to the distance between two dimensions.
We use the formula:

d = \sqrt{{(x_{2} - x_{1})}^{2} + {(y_{2} - y_{1})}^{2} + {(z_{2} - z_{1})}^{2}}

, where x, y, and z are the coordinates.
Let's plug in the values for the coordinates into the formula. Pay attention to the negative signs:

d = \sqrt{{(5 - 3)}^{2} + {(8 - 9)}^{2} + {(8 - 8)}^{2}}

And now simplify:

d = \sqrt{{(2)}^{2} + {(- 1)}^{2} + {(0)}^{2}}

d = \sqrt{4 + 1}

d = \sqrt{5}

\approx 2.236
