Horizontal and Vertical Distance on Coordinate Plane

What is the rule for finding the distance between two points on the coordinate plane if the two points are in the SAME quadrant?

• Find the absolute value of the coordinate that are the SAME and SUBTRACT them.

• Find the absolute value of the coordinate that are the SAME and ADD them.

• Find the absolute value of the coordinate that are DIFFERENT and SUBTRACT them.

• Find the absolute value of the coordinate that are DIFFERENT and ADD them.

Which expression would find the distance between the points.

(–6,–10), (–2,–10)

Hint: since the y points are the same, just find the distance between the 2 'x' points

• |-6| + |-2|= 8

• |-6| - |-2|= 4

• |-6| + |-2| = 6

• |-6| - |-2|=10

What is the distance between points G(4, 1) and H(4, -7)?

• 8 units because

  |1| + |-7| = 8

• 8 units because

  |4| + |4| = 8

• 6 units because |-7| - |1|= 6

• 5 units because

  |4| + |1| = 5

What is the distance between the following ordered pairs: (5, 6) and (5, 8)

• 3 units because |8|-|5| = 3

• 1 units because |6| - |5| = 1

• 5 units because the x value is 5.

• 2 units because |8| - |6| = 2
