What is the distance formula and how do you derive it

The video tutorial reviews how to find the distance between two points on a coordinate grid using the Pythagorean theorem. It explains the need for subscripts to differentiate between coordinates and demonstrates the calculation of horizontal and vertical distances. The tutorial concludes with the derivation of the distance formula, emphasizing its components and application.
