- 1 The distance between two points defined as the square root of the sum of the squares of the differences between the corresponding coordinates of the points; for example, in two-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the Euclidean distance between two points a = (aₓ, a_y) and b = (bₓ, b_y) is defined as countable, uncountable
