1. 1. Find the distance between HINT FOR MULTIPLE CHOICE!
Distance Formula
There are three ways you can find
the distance between two points.
Plug endpoint ordered pairs
into the Distance Formula
1. Find the distance between
T (1, -5) and V (3,-2).
Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
HINT FOR MULTIPLE CHOICE!
Plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane
and use a MEASURING technique.
Measure the length of the segment with another paper. Mark it. Measure it against the bottom of the coordinate plane to estimate answer.
What is the distance between the
given points?
2 C.
B. D.

2. Find distance using the Pythagorean Theorem Plot your endpoints.
Create a right triangle.
Then use the Pythagorean Theorem.
3. What is the distance between
( -1 , 5 ) and ( 3 , 2 )?
4. What is the distance between ?
Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
Use the method of your choice.
ACT Question, Pre-Algebra
5. What is the distance in the standard (x, y)
coordinate plane between the points
(1, 0) and (0, 5)?
6. Find the distance between the
pair of points. (7, -3) and (-8, -3)
