Lesson: Distance on the Coordinate Plane: Horizontal and Vertical Mathematics • 6th Grade

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to find the horizontal or vertical distance between two points on the coordinate plane.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

find horizontal and vertical distances between two points in the first quadrant,
find horizontal and vertical distances between two points found in any of the four quadrants using absolute value,
use the distance on a coordinate plane to find the area and perimeter of shapes.
