Study Notes
Distance Formula
- The distance formula can be used to calculate the distance between two points in a two-dimensional plane.
Rate of Travel
- To find the rate of travel in miles per hour, the distance formula can be used.
- Denise's current rate can be found using the distance formula, given that she travels for 4 hours.
Gas Mileage
- The gas mileage of the Toyota Prius is essential to know how far Miseal can travel on 5 gallons of gas.
Distance Calculation
- The equation d = rt can be used to calculate distance using the rate and time.
- The distance formula for the coordinate plane is d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2).
Subscripts in Distance Equation
- The subscripts 1 and 2 in the distance equation for the coordinate plane represent the two points being measured.
Coordinate Plane
- A coordinate in the coordinate plane is a point on the plane defined by its x and y values.
Definition of Distance
- Distance is the amount of space between two points, and it can be calculated using the distance formula.
