Read each question carefully and calculate the distance between the given points on the coordinate plane. Show all your work.

1. Find the distance between the points (2, 3) and (5, 7).

2. Calculate the distance between the points (-4, 1) and (2, -5).

3. Which of the following represents the distance between points A(0,0) and B(3,4)?

4. The distance between (1, -2) and (1, 8) is:

5. The distance formula is derived from the theorem.

6. When two points have the same x-coordinate, the distance between them is the absolute difference of their -coordinates.

7. A triangle has vertices at A(1,1), B(4,1), and C(1,5). Find the perimeter of the triangle.

8. Plot the points P(-3,2) and Q(4,-1) on the coordinate plane below and then calculate the distance between them.
