What is the length of \overline{SEGMENT}?

SOLUTION

SEGMENT means the distance from \color{COLORS[ IDX_1 ]}{POINT_1} to \color{COLORS[ IDX_2 ]}{POINT_2}.

SEGMENT = |\color{COLORS[ IDX_1 ]}{POINTS[ IDX_1 ]} - \color{COLORS[ IDX_2 ]}{POINTS[ IDX_2 ]}|

SEGMENT = |POINTS[ IDX_1 ] - POINTS[ IDX_2 ]|

SEGMENT = SOLUTION
