Jose lives 5 km away from
the plaza. Every Saturday, he
meets Emilio and Diego for a
morning exercise. In going to
the plaza, Emilio has to travel
6 km to the west while Diego
has to travel 8 km to the
south. The location of their
houses and the plaza are
illustrated on the coordinate
plane as shown below.
1. How far is Emilio’s house from Diego’s house? Explain
your answer.
2. Suppose the City Hall is 4 km north of Jose’s house.
How far is it from the plaza? from Emilio’s house?
Explain your answer.
3. How far is the gasoline station from Jose’s house if it is
km south of Emilio’s house? Explain your answer.
4. What are the coordinates of the points corresponding
to the houses of Jose, Emilio, and Diego? How about
the coordinates of the point corresponding to the
plaza?
5. If the City Hall is km north of Jose’s house, what are
the coordinates of the point corresponding to it? How
about the coordinates of the point corresponding to the
gasoline station if it is km south of Emilio’s house?
6. How are you going to use the coordinates of the points
in determining the distance between Emilio’s house
and the City Hall? Jose’s house and the gasoline
station? The distances of the houses of Jose, Emilio,
and Diego from each other? Explain your answer.
