Assignment 9.11 is an introduction to using the Distance formula to find the distance between points having algebraic coordinates.

 

Prerequisite Skills:  Find the distance between two points on the coordinate plane using the Distance formula (Assignment 9.2).  

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   2                                            2

Theorem:  The formula for the distance (d) between two points: (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:   d =      (x2 - x1 )       +      ( y2 - y1)
