Distance on the Coordinate Plane Between Two Points Notes & Practice Worksheets
In these activities, students practice using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between 2 points. The first example has students find the distance between vertical and horizontal points so they can begin to count units and consider basic distance. The second example focuses on non-vertical, non-horizontal lines and requires forming a right triangle and using Pythagoras. Practice does involve higher order thinking and a word problem. The challenge version introduces the distance for
