2. Arc length - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_length

   Arc length is the distance between two points along a section of a curve. Determining the length of an irregular arc segment by approximating the arc segment as connected (straight) line segments is also called curve rectification. For a rectifiable curve these approximations don't get arbitrarily large (so the curve has a finite length).

4. Linear interpolation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_interpolation

   Given the two red points, the blue line is the linear interpolant between the points, and the value y at x may be found by linear interpolation.. In mathematics, linear interpolation is a method of curve fitting using linear polynomials to construct new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points.

5. Triangulation (surveying) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulation_(surveying)

   In surveying, triangulation is the process of determining the location of a point by measuring only angles to it from known points at either end of a fixed baseline by using trigonometry, rather than measuring distances to the point directly as in trilateration. The point can then be fixed as the third point of a triangle with one known side ...

6. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

   The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.

7. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

   That is (unlike road distance with one-way streets) the distance between two points does not depend on which of the two points is the start and which is the destination. [11] It is positive, meaning that the distance between every two distinct points is a positive number, while the distance from any point to itself is zero. [11]
