The distance between the pool and your house can be calculated using the distance formula:
Distance = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Distance = √((2 - 2)^2 + (20 - 18)^2)
Distance = √(0^2 + 2^2)
Distance = √(0 + 4)
Distance = √4
Distance = 2 miles
Therefore, your house is 2 miles from the pool.
A neighborhood map was created on a coordinate plane. Each grid represents one
mile. If the pool is on coordinates (2, 20), and your house is on coordinates (2, 18),
how many miles is your house from the pool? (1 point)
