Question

What is the distance from point E to point D?

A. 5 units
B. 6 units
C. 7 units
D. 8 units

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Looking at the graph, you can see that points E and D are on the same line. The coordinate for point E is
`(4,-4)`, and the coordinate for point D is
`(4,2)`. Because they are on the same line, we only have to look at the y coordinates,
`-4` and
`2`. We add these together (ignoring the negative sign in
`4`, because distance can't be negative) to get
`6`, or B.

Answer 2

6 units

Explanation:

could each square from E to D
