Treasure Map - Coordinate Distance

Front

What is the distance formula for points on a coordinate plane?

Back

Distance = |x2 - x1| + |y2 - y1|

Front

What does the absolute value symbol |x| represent?

Back

The absolute value of x represents the distance of x from 0 on the number line, regardless of direction.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points in the same quadrant?

Back

Use the formula: Distance = |x2 - x1| + |y2 - y1|.

Front

What is the distance between the points (-1, -6) and (-1, -4)?

Back

Distance = |-6 - (-4)| = |-6 + 4| = |-2| = 2 units.

Front

How do you calculate the distance between two points with different x-coordinates?

Back

Add the absolute values of the differences in their x-coordinates and y-coordinates.

Front

What is the distance between the points (5, 0) and (1, 0)?

Back

Distance = |5 - 1| + |0 - 0| = |4| + |0| = 4 units.

Front

What is the distance between the points (5, -3) and (5, 1)?

Back

Distance = |(-3) - 1| = |-4| = 4 units.

Front

How do you determine the distance between points in different quadrants?

Back

Calculate the distance separately for x and y coordinates and then add them.

Front

What is the distance between the points (5, 0) and (5, -6)?

Back

Distance = |0 - (-6)| = |0 + 6| = 6 units.

Front

What is the distance between the points (5, -3) and (1, -3)?

Back

Distance = |5 - 1| + |-3 - (-3)| = |4| + |0| = 4 units.
