Distance Formula Word Problems and Answers. [A] On a map’s coordinate grid, Walt City is located at (-1, -3) and Koshville is located at (4, 9). How long is a train’s route as the train travels along a straight line from Walt City to Koshville? (One unit on the map equals one mile). [B] Ava and Serena have a garden in their backyard.
Hint: x could have more than one value. What is the length of the line segment between these points? What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment? M is the midpoint of line segment AB. The coordinates of A are (-2,3) and the coordinates of M are (1,0). Find the coordinates of B.

Practice 11-3. Distance and Midpoint Formulas. The table has sets of endpoints of several segments. Find the distance between each pair of points and the midpoint of each segment. Round to the nearest tenth when necessary. Find the perimeter of each figure. Round to the nearest tenth when necessary. 7.
Walk through deriving a general formula for the distance between two points. The distance between the points ( x 1, y 1) and ( x 2, y 2) is given by the following formula: ( x 2 − x 1) 2 + ( y 2 − y 1) 2. In this article, we're going to derive this formula!
