Distance and Coordinates Concepts

The video tutorial covers graphing concepts using a diagram exercise, calculating distances between points on a coordinate plane, understanding the origin, and analyzing line segments. It emphasizes the use of absolute values and number lines to determine distances.

What visual shape do the roads make at the intersection in the diagram?

• A plus sign

• A triangle

• A square

• A circle

How do you calculate the distance between two points on opposite sides of zero?

• Divide their absolute values

• Multiply their absolute values

• Subtract their absolute values

• Add their absolute values

What is the distance between Albertville and Dewey Falls?

• 10 miles

• 12 miles

• 14 miles

• 16 miles

When both points are on the same side of zero, how do you find the distance between them?

• Add the distances

• Subtract the smaller distance from the larger

• Multiply the distances

• Divide the larger distance by the smaller

What is the term for the intersection of two roads on a coordinate plane?

• Axis

• Vertex

• Origin

• Midpoint

What do the coordinates (-4, 0) and (5, 0) have in common?

• Both are on the y-axis

• Both are on the origin

• Both have the same y-coordinate

• Both have the same x-coordinate

How do you find the distance between two points on a number line?

• Subtract the coordinates

• Multiply the coordinates

• Add the coordinates

• Find the absolute value of their difference

What is the length of the line segment between the points (0, 6) and (0, 1)?

• 3 units

• 6 units

• 5 units

• 4 units

If a line segment has endpoints at (1, 0) and (-6, 0), what is its length?

• 7 units

• 8 units

• 6 units

• 5 units

What method can be used to find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

• Using trigonometry

• Using calculus

• Using absolute values

• Using the Pythagorean theorem
