Question
Find the distance between the following ordered pairs: (0, 6) and (0, - 4)
6 units
4 units
10 units
11 units
Hint:
Distance is a numerical measurement of how far apart objects or points are. Absolute value is the magnitude of a real number without regard to its sign. Also called modulus
The correct answer is: 10 units
Step 1: If the x - coordinates are the same, we use the y - coordinates to find the distance. Step 2: Add absolute values of the coordinates to find the distance between the points since they lie in different quadrants. Step 3: ∣ 6 ∣ + ∣ - 4∣ = 6 + 4 = 10
