Answer:

Sample response: If you connect two points that have the same y-coordinate, the line will be a horizontal line. Just as you do with number lines, you count the spaces between the numbers to find the distance.

We need to determine, how do you find the distance between two points that have the same y coordinates and lie in the same quadrant?

When we have we points that have the same y coordinates and lie in the same quadrant, we need to subtract smaller x-coordinate value from larger x-coordinate value.

For example, if we have two coordinates (x1,y) and (x2, y).

Here y-coordinates are same.

So, we find the distance between those points by subtracting x1 from x2.

Therefore, distance between (x1,y) and (x2, y) points = x2 -x1 .
