1st Trimester Distance Between Two Points

Directions: Analyze the situations and perform the instructions provided.

1. HW Using the distance formula, how do we show that three points are collinear? Which set of three
( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) (
coordinates from A 0,0 , B − 2,8 , C 3,2 , D 1,−4 , and E − 9,−6 , are collinear? )

2. If the distance from ( x,−2 ) and (2,4 ) is 10 units, what is the value of x if it is located on the third quadrant?
How would you solve for the value of x?

3. The coordinates (2,6) and (7,−2) are both equidistant from (− 3, y ) . In which quadrant(s) is (− 3, y )
located? What is/are the value(s) of y?

4. The vertices of triangle ABC are A(− 2,−3) , B(2,1) , and C (− 6,5) .
a. Plot the vertices and sketch the triangle on the coordinate plane on
the right.
b. If 1 unit = 1 cm, what is the perimeter of ABC ? Explain how you
would determine the perimeter given the coordinates of this triangle.

5. Triangle DEF has vertices at D(4,1) , E (1,−2) , and F (6,−4 ) .

a. Plot the vertices and sketch the triangle on the coordinate plane on
the right.
b. Is the triangle scalene, isosceles, or equilateral? Explain your answer.

6. HW Triangle GHI has vertices at G (5,−2 ) , H (1,1) , and I (7,9 ) .

a. Plot the vertices and sketch the triangle on the coordinate plane on the right.
b. How do we verify if GHI is acute, obtuse, or a right triangle? Classify GHI .

7. ( )
If the coordinates 5,4 , (− 5,8 ) , (− 7,3) , and (3,−1) form a rectangle, what is the perimeter and area of
this rectangle? How do we determine the perimeter and area of a rectangle using the distance formula?

8. HW Verify the type of quadrilateral whose vertices are the coordinates (− 2,7 ) , (5,4 ) , (− 8,−7 ) , and
(− 1,−10 ) . Explain how the distance formula aids in classifying this quadrilateral.

9. A diagonal of a quadrilateral has the endpoints (2,−4 ) , and (6,−2 ) . If the quadrilateral is a rectangle,
provide two possible coordinates which are the endpoints of the other diagonal. Explain how you obtained
the coordinates.

10. Determine if the coordinates (− 2,3) , (− 2,−1) , (4,−1) , and (4,3) are equidistant from (1,1) . What
geometric figure is best suited to represent all points equidistant from (1,1) ?

11. A circle, whose center is at (−2,3) , has a radius the measures 5 units. Identify whether the following points
are located at the interior of the circle, exterior of the circle, or on the circle. Explain how the distance
formula is used to complete this task.

12. The coordinate plane at the right shows a map for a vacation trip. Each square
grid has a side that represents 50 miles. During your vacation, you want to visit
all of the sites on the map. There are two orders in which to visit the sites so that
you travel the shortest distance. What are these two orders?

13. The diagram shows existing roads BD and DE , and a planned new road
CE under construction. How much shorter is the trip going to be from B to
E after the construction of the new road CE ?

14. The map below is a route for a hike. At present, rough weather is occurring and
the hiker needs to find a place to settle as soon as possible. If the hiker is already
at point B, would you recommend for him to go to point A and settle there or to
make his way to the lodge?

15. A photo of a crater on Mars was taken and shown here. It takes a circular shape
and the two points that are indicated are endpoints of the diameter. If the
photo uses a scale of I unit = 1 kilometer, what is the circumference of this
crater?
