Midpointand Distance May 6th,2013
Warm Up • Solve for x. −5(1 − 5x) + 5(−8x− 2) = −4x − 8x 2. Factor. z2 - z - 3 = 0 3. Factor. 2x2 + 7x + 3
Vocabulary • Distance: is a numerical description of how far apart two points are • Midpoint: divides a segment into two congruent pieces
Points on a Coordinate Plane • What is a point? • How do you show a point’s location on the coordinate plane? • What comes first? A(x1, y1) B(x2, y2)
Midpoint FORMULA • Number Line: • Coordinate Plane:
Example • Calculate the midpoint of segment EB.
You TryFind the Midpoint • L(0, 0), M(9, 3)
You Try!Find the Midpoint 2 and 7
Distance Formula • Number Line: • Coordinate Plane:
Example • Calculate the distance between D and A.
You tryFind the distance • K(0, 5), L(7, 9)
Finding Area and Perimeter • Use the distance formula to find the “area” and “perimeter” • The area for a square/rectangle is A = b•h • The area for a triangle is A = ½ b•h • For perimeter you ADD UP the distance of all the sides of the shape.
You Try • Find the area of the shape below.
