Follow the instructions for each section. Show all your work when calculating distances.

Part 1: Horizontal and Vertical Distance

Calculate the horizontal or vertical distance between the given points.

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

2. What is the distance between (-4, 1) and (6, 1)?

Part 2: Plotting Points and Distance

Plot the given points on the coordinate plane and then find the distance between them.

1. Plot points A(3, 4) and B(-2, 4). What is the distance between A and B?

Part 3: Multiple Choice

Choose the best answer for each question.

1. Which formula is used to find the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) on a coordinate plane?

d = |x2 - x1|

d = |y2 - y1|

d = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

d = (x1 + x2) / 2

2. What is the distance between (0, 0) and (3, 4)?
