Euclidean Distance between XY Coordinates

Question

I would like to calculate the Euclidean Distance between two points using ArcGIS Pro Desktop. My data set contains X, Y Coordinates for "ID" as well as X, Y Coordinates for "BUILDING". I successfully ran the XY to Line tool which created a table with a "Shape_Length" field. However, I am not sure what unit of measurement that is or how to translate it into miles.

ID         ID_X      ID_Y       BUILDING      BUILDING_X      BUILDING_Y

1                                              A

2                                              A

3                                              B

My organization's Input Locator uses "GCS WGS 1984" as its Geographic coordinate system.

When I Geocode my "ID" address table and "BUILDING" address table I use my organization's Input Locator. When I run the XY to Line tool I use line type "Geodesic" and Spatial Reference "GCS_WGS_1984". Does this answer your question? Thanks!

Well you need to know what coordinate system you are dealing with. Presumably (may be not always the case), the XYs and the length are in those units.
