Determine the Distance Between Two Points on a Plane

Using the coordinate plane to answer the questions. Each unit on this coordinate plane represents 1 kilometer. Nathan rode his bike from his house to Dylan's house. How many kilometers did he ride his bike?

• -5 kilometers

• 5 kilometers

• 9 kilometers

• 10 kilometers

If Nathan adds the y-coordinates for the points of Dylan's and Gio's houses, plus the x-coordinates of his and Dylan's houses, he will get the total distance that he rode. Which equation could be used to find the total distance Nathan traveled on his bike?

Use the coordinate plane to determine whether each statement about the coordinates is true or false. (Select ALL of the statements that are TRUE.)

• Shannon Ranch is located directly across the y-axis from In-n-Out and is on the same y-coordinate as In-n-Out.

• The distance between Starbucks and Green Acres MS is equal to the distance between Riverway Sports Park and In-n-Out.

• Shannon Ranch is further from Starbucks than it is from In-n-Out.

What is the distance between (3,4) and (3,-2)?

• 6

• 5

• 2

• 3
