Math Problem Statement
Solution
The task in the image requires solving the following steps:
- Draw a coordinate plane.
- Mark points:
A(5;4), B(3;-2), C(-5;7), and D(-8;-1). - Find the projection of movement on the axes and calculate the distance between the points.
- Input values with proper signs and round to hundredths.
Solution Approach:
1. Coordinate Plane and Points
- Draw a two-dimensional Cartesian plane (x and y axes).
- Mark the given points:
2. Projection of Movement
To calculate the movement (displacement) between points, find the projection on both the x and y axes for each pair of points. The general formula for displacement between two points and is:
-
Between A and B: Displacement between A and B:
-
Between B and C: Displacement between B and C:
-
Between C and D: Displacement between C and D:
3. Final Results:
- The projections for each axis for every pair of points are calculated.
- The total displacements have been rounded to hundredths as required.

Follow-up Questions:
- How do you calculate the displacement for other points on the coordinate plane?
- What are the formulas used to find the projections of movement along axes?
- How would the result change if one of the points were in 3D space?
- What are the properties of the Cartesian plane used in this calculation?
- Can you calculate displacement using a different method or visual tool?
Tip:
When plotting points, always check if the coordinates are positive or negative, to place them correctly on the x and y axes.
