The formula for calculating the distance between two points is:
d = ( x 2 - x 1 ) 2 + ( y 2 - y 1 ) 2 + ( z 2 - z 1 ) 2
Substituting the values from the points in the problem gives:
d = ( - 12 + 2 ) 2 + ( 2 - 1 ) 2 + ( - 5 - 14 ) 2
d = ( - 10 ) 2 + 1 2 + ( - 19 ) 2
d = 462
d = 21.494 rounded to the nearest thousandth.
