Cartesian Coordinate System - Distance and Intermediate Position Between Two Points

Calculate the distance between two points and their intermediate position in a rectangular Cartesian coordinate system. The tool supports finding the distance between any two points and determining intermediate positions including the midpoint.

Calculator

Inputs

x1 coordinate of Point P1

y1 coordinate of Point P1

x2 coordinate of Point P2

y2 coordinate of Point P2

r1 ratio (distance P1 to P / distance P1 to P2)

r2 ratio (distance P2 to P / distance P1 to P2)

Results

Distance between P1 and P2-- units

Intermediate X coordinate-- units

Intermediate Y coordinate-- units

Midpoint X coordinate-- units

Midpoint Y coordinate-- units
