Do you know the distance formula or pythagorean theorem?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Have you considered counting the horizontal and vertical distances?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a^2+B^2 =C^2

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Do you see how I did that?

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

So, can you tell how long any of the lines are?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but u said draw a triangle right?

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Yep, can you draw a triangle like that on your graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it doesnt let me but if i did where would the other point go?

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Well, can you redraw it on paper?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

The other point is the intersection of drawing straight lines along the x and y axes from each point.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ok but i still cant tell how many units cause it doesnt cross evenly

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

What do you mean, doesn't cross evenly? Can you draw me a graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeabut u can see in he immage i poosted , see hoe the line crosses in between the square units

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

I am looking at the image, and it looks like it crosses on the square units to me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol did i just type that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try to draw a line from point to point
