Treasure Map - Coordinate Distance

Front

What is the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

Back

The distance can be calculated using the formula: Distance = |x1 - x2| + |y1 - y2|.

Front

What does the term 'quadrant' refer to in a coordinate plane?

Back

A quadrant is one of the four sections of the coordinate plane, divided by the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

What is the significance of absolute value in distance calculations?

Back

Absolute value measures the distance from zero, ensuring that distance is always a positive value.

Front

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

Back

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