In moving from A (3, 4) to D (7, 1), what distance has been covered along the x-axis Class 9
Look at triangle ADM in Fig. 1.6. 13

Question 1.
In moving from A (3, 4) to D (7, 1), what distance has been covered along the x-axis? What about the distance along the y-axis? Class 9
Answer:
Distance covered alongx-axis = x-coordinate of D -x-coordinate ofA = 7 - 3 = 4units
Distance covered along y-axis = y-coordinate of A - y-coordinate ofD = 4 - 1 = 3 units
Question 2.
Can these distances help you find the distance AD? Class 9
Answer:
Yes, these distances can help us find the distance AD.
