March 30, 2015 SPI Find the length of vertical or horizontal line segments in the first quadrant of the coordinate system, including problems that require the use of fractions and decimals. Line Segments on a Coordinate Plane

We can locate a given point on a coordinate plane. (x,y) (over,up) (crawl, walk) (run, jump) Mario! “You must run before you jump.”

What state is located at (3,4)? Is it the same state as location (4,3)? (over,up) (x,y)

We can determine the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. How far is it from the tree to the birdbath? John plans to place a fountain 4 ½ units from the flowers. If he runs his path horizontally, what would be the location of the fountain?

We can determine the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. What’s the distance between point T and V?

We can measure the length of a line segment. Which line segment has a length of 0.75 units? WW

We can identify horizontal and vertical line segments. If I graphed ordered pairs (4,5) (4,9.2) would this be a vertical or horizontal line segment?

We can measure the length of a line segment. What is the length of this line segment? How do you know?

We can measure the length of a line segment. What is the length of this line segment? How could we make this line segment 5 units long?

Great Job!!
