How to get the coordinates of the second point, knowing the coordinates of the first, and the distance between them?
There is point A, there is its latitude and longitude, I know that from point A at a certain distance (not large max 5 km), there is point B, I know the distance between them in x and y. How can I get the coordinates of point B?
For example, there is a point 55.734316, 37.625327 and let's say at the same latitude but 1 km to the east there is point B, how to get the coordinates of point B.

point 1 (x1,y1)
distance (x2,y2)
point 2 = point 1 + distance = (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)
just add everything
No way, because one more point (vector) is needed, this is called Triangulation. You're missing another one.
