1. W. A. M: How can we find the distance between the given points
W.A.M: How can we find the distance between the given points? What is the distance between the two points?
Reminder: Notebook Quiz tomorrow 5/7
MCC8.EE.6- Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation y = mx for a line through the origin and the equation y = mx + b for a line intercepting the vertical axis at b.
MCC8.G.7 Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between two points in a coordinate system

2. High School Geometry Standards
MM1G1a- Determine the distance between two points.
MM1G1c- Determine the midpoint of a segment.
I Can Statement: I can identify the slope, distance, and midpoint of a line segment on a coordinate grid.
