Finding Distances on a Map Using Ordered Pairs

This lesson teaches how to find distances on a map using ordered pairs. It explains the coordinate plane, emphasizing the x- and y-axes, and demonstrates calculating distances between points, such as a school and a mall, using ordered pairs. The lesson includes examples and concludes with a summary of the concepts covered.

What is the actual distance in feet between the school and the mall after conversion?

What additional leg is added to the distance calculation in the second example?

How do you calculate the total distance after adding the field to the previous example?
