(2, 9), (2, 1)
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common x coordinate 2.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the y coordinates, i.e., 9 − 1 = 8 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 8 units.
(3, 10)(9, 10)
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate 10
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., 9 − 3 = 6 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 6 units.
(−3, 6), (−3, 12)
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common x coordinate −3.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the y coordinates, i.e., 12 − 6 = 6 units
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 6 units
(4, −8), (9, −8)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate −8.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., 9 − 4 = 5 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 5 units.
(−2, −6), (−9, −6)
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate −6.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., −2 – (−9) = −2 + 9 = 7 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 7 units.
(7, 0), (13, 0)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate 0
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., 13 − 7 = 6 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 6 units
(0, −6), (0, −11)
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common x coordinate 0.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the y coordinates, i.e., −6 – (−11) = −6 + 11 = 5 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 5 units.
(1, 11), (8, 11)
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate 11.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., 8 − 1 = 7 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 7 units
(3, 9), (3, −6)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common x coordinate 3.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the y coordinates, i.e., 9 – (−6) = 9 + 6 = 15 units.
Step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 8 units.
(2, −8), (11, −8)
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1 − The given pair of points have a common y coordinate −8.
Step 2 − The distance between the points is the difference between the x coordinates, i.e., 11 − 2 = 9 units.
step 3 − So, the distance between the points = 9 units
