Distance on a Coordinate Plane

Front

What formula is used to calculate the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) on a coordinate plane?

Back

The distance formula is: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

What is the distance between the points (3, 4) and (7, 1)?

Back

The distance is 5 units.

Front

What is the distance between the points (-1, -1) and (2, 2)?

Back

The distance is √(18) or approximately 4.24 units.

What is the distance between the points (0, 0) and (3, 4)?

Back

The distance is 5 units.

Front

What is the significance of the point (0, 0) in a coordinate plane?

Back

(0, 0) is called the Origin.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points if one point is at (x1, y1) and the other at (x2, y2)?

Back

Use the distance formula: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

What is the distance between the points (1, 1) and (1, 4)?

Back

The distance is 3 units.
