Figure 2.1: Distance between The point A and point B

Solution:
dAB = I 50 – 175I + I185 – 100I
= 210

2. Euclidean
 Straight line
 Distance are measured along the straight line path between two points.

 Figure 2.2 shows the distance from point A to point B using Euclidean
distance.
 Example:
A straight conveyor segment linking two work station illustrate Euclidean
distance.

dAB =  ( xA – xB ) + ( yA – yB )
