Beth and Jenny are meeting at Beth's grandmother's house next week to help her clean out her attic. The girls draw a
map to plan out their route. Beth lives 3 miles from her grandmother and Jenny lives 4 miles from Beth's grandmother.
The girls use the map to figure out how far they live from each other.
. On a separate sheet of paper, draw a coordinate plane. Label the x and y axis, as well as the origin.
Randomly choose a point to represent Beth's grandmother's house. Make sure to label the point.
. From the point, map out a straight line distance to Beth's house. Label the point as Beth's house.
• Return to Grandmother's house and count a straight line distance to Jenny's house. Make sure to travel in a different
direction from Beth's house. Label the point as Jenny's house.
Using the distance formula, find the straight line distance between Beth and Jenny's houses.
