Question

Point R is at (4, 1.5) and Point T is at (4, 2.9) on a coordinate grid. The distance between the two points is ____. (Input numbers and decimal point only, such as 8.2.)

Answer 1

1.4

Explanation:

Both points are on the vertical line x=4, so the distance between them is the difference of their y-coordinates:

2.9 -1.5 = 1.4

The points are 1.4 units apart.
