Default pythagoras theorem help needed

hi,
i am trying to find out position of an object inside a room using excel
with pythagora's theorem. i really have no experience of working with
excel before. if i am in a room which is 70m*70mt, i need to divide
that room into 7 rows and colums each of 10mt. in this case i divide it
into 7 rows and colums of 10cm each with excel. then if i am able to
see what position i am in the room, i mean which colum and row, using
pythagoras theorem i will be able to find where my actual position is
inside the room.
i really have no clue how to do this. pls help me on it.
