[-(+2)(-3)(-1)(+4)=]
- (+2)(-3)(-1)(+4)=
- (-6)(-1)(+4)
(6)(-4) = -24

above is the distance formula, plugging your numbers from P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2).

Cylinders are 3D figures, as they are solids with volume and take up space.
2D figures are flat figures that you can draw, like a square or circle.
1D figures are actually just a line, a segment, or a point, etc.
