Please help me implement in Libgdx a way to move my character to where I touch

[john hog]

How do I move my character from his current location towards where I touch? I have tried the vector2 method for lerping and it just worked out really weird. What is the math / formula/ logic??

I have tried obtaining the angle between both points and multiplying them by my acceleration and speed but nothing seemed to work correctly. I googled and tried a few formulas provided but none of them made my player move to where I want. Like my character can move but not where I click, its almost kind of random. Please help, been at this for a long time and other websites have not been very useful, my game is already published but people have complained of controls so I want to implement the move to where I touch instead of a touch drag movement I used

here is the last thing I tried

	@Override
	public boolean touchDown(int screenX, int screenY, int pointer, int button) {
		// coordinates come in pixels so convert to world units
		scaleX = screenX / (Gdx.graphics.getWidth() / 10f);
		scaleY = screenY / (Gdx.graphics.getHeight() / 7f) * -1;

	
		float angle = new Vector2(scaleX - mishi.getPosition().x, scaleY
				- mishi.getPosition().y).angle();
......
....
...
mishi.getVelocity().x = (float) (Math.cos(angle) * 13);
mishi.getVelocity().y = (float) (Math.sin(angle) * 13);
