Chapter 1 Section 3
Distance and Midpoints
In this section, the main concepts are finding distance on a number line, coordinate plane, midpoints of segments, and the coordinates of these. For the first part the problems were using the number line and finding midpoints. This was just finding averages pretty much. We also had to find midpoint coordinates on a plane by finding the averages of the two points, which is similar to finding the midpoint on a number line except with 2 axes. Then we used algebraic equations to solve harder types of these problems. Also compass’ were used to bisect segments on page 25. After that Pythagorean theorem to find the distance between points, which was review from the last section.
