My calculus students that I tutor struggled with this exact problem type on their exam, and I had to review this myself before going over it with them. You did a fantastic job explaining this concept. Thank you Mr. Crow, your video is much appreciate!

I understand this pretty well but what about when you have to find the minimum horizontal distance between 2 graphs? Is it much different??

is there a way to find the minimum distance, that doesn't have to be vertical?

When taking the square root why can you just remove the square? What about the case where 2x^2 - x + 1 is negative?

YOU ASSUMED THAT THE DISTANCE IS VERTICAL LINE BETWEEN THESE 2 GRAPHS, WHAT I WANT IS THE GENERAL MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN 2 GRAPHS " Note that the two graphs are so cool to work on, some functions will be hard to solve ".
