Its just pythagoreans theorem really. Think back theres a point-distance formula. Now that you have the latitude and longitude values in decimals you just face the equation for the nautical miles between Timbuktu and Casablanca noted underneath.
Find Terminal Coordinates Given a Bearing and a Distance This function will calculate the end coordinates in degrees minutes and seconds given an initial set of coordinates a bearing or azimuth referenced to True North or 0 degrees and a distance.
Calculate distance between coordinates using Google Maps in Excel To get Google Maps distance between two coordinates simply use the same GetDistance function as above. Now that you have the latitude and longitude values in decimals you just face the equation for the nautical miles between Timbuktu and Casablanca noted underneath. Its just pythagoreans theorem really. Calculate the distance between 2 points in 2 dimensional space.
