Distances in the Coordinate Plane

Students will explore distances in the coordinate plane. After finding the coordinates of a segment’s endpoints, students will substitute these values into the distance formula and compare the results to the measured length of the segment. Then students will find the distance between the endpoint...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Spree" - A Pursuit Curve Problem

In "Spree", two lovers have committed a series of crimes at various locations. Agents Eppes and Edgerton have plotted a map of their movements and have enlisted Charlie's help in trying to detect a pattern. Charlie says that the map shows only half of the story, and this pattern 'is a variation o...
