Calculate the distance between:

(3, 4, 5) and (5, 6, 7)

Also calculate the parametric and symmetric forms

Distance formula for 3-D points

Distance = √(x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 + (z2 - z1)2

Distance = √(5 - 3)2 + (6 - 4)2 + (7 - 5)2

Distance = √22 + 22 + 22

Distance = √4 + 4 + 4

Distance = √12

Distance = 3.4641016151378

Parametric Equation Form:

(x,y,z) = (x0,y0,z0) + t(a,b,c)

Plugging in our numbers, we get:

(x,y,z) = (3,4,5) + t(5 - 3,6 - 4,7 - 5)

(x,y,z) = (3,4,5) + t(2,2 ,2)

x = 3 + 2t

y = 4 + 2t

z = 5 + 2t

Symmetric Equation Form:

x - x0
a
=
  
y - y0
b
=
  
z - z0
c

Plugging in our numbers, we get:

x - 3
2
