How do you calculate the distance between two points with different x
and y values? I know it is some simple math formula - I just don't know
it

You can use our old friend Pythagoras':
c^2 = a^2 + b^2

dx:Number = obj1.x - obj2.x;
dy:Number = obj1.y - obj2.y;
distance:Number = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);

The square root of the sum of the squares of the x difference and the y
difference.

How do you calculate the distance between two
Aha - didn't know about that!

Or you
Your teacher must be cringing!
The square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares
of the opposite two sides should be familar.. ;-)
Math.sqrt ( Math.pow(Math.abs(x1-x2),2
)+Math.pow(Math.abs(y1-y2),2 )+))
Why not skip the math lessons and use the Point class?
var dist:Number =
Good point
