Coordinate Geometry and Distance Formula Quiz

#1

What is the distance between the points (3, 4) and (6, 8)?

6
Explanation

Pythagorean theorem applied to find the length of the line segment.

#2

What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints (2, 5) and (8, 11)?

(8, 8)
Explanation

Midpoint formula: average of x-coordinates and average of y-coordinates.

#3

What is the distance between the points (-3, 0) and (4, 0)?

5
Explanation

Absolute difference of x-coordinates, as they lie on the same horizontal line.

#4

If the slope of a line is undefined, what can be said about the line?

The line is vertical.
Explanation

Undefined slope indicates a vertical line.

#5

What is the slope of a line parallel to the y-axis?

undefined
Explanation

No change in y-coordinate implies undefined slope.

#6

What is the slope of a horizontal line?

0
Explanation

Horizontal lines have no change in y-coordinate.

#7

If two points have the same x-coordinate, what can you say about their position?

They lie on the x-axis.
Explanation

Common x-coordinate implies both points lie on the same horizontal line.

#8

What are the coordinates of the point which divides the line segment joining (-3, 4) and (5, -2) internally in the ratio 2:3?

(2, -2)
Explanation

Internal division formula applied to find the coordinates of the point.

#9

What is the equation of the line passing through the points (1, 2) and (5, 6)?

y = 2x - 1
Explanation

Using point-slope form with one of the given points.

#10

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment joining (-4, 3) and (6, -5)?

(2, -1)
Explanation

Midpoint formula applied to find the coordinates of the midpoint.

#11

If the distance between two points is 10 units and one of the points is (3, 4), what could be the coordinates of the other point?

(6, 8)
Explanation

Distance formula applied with one known point to find the other.

#12

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (2, 3) and (6, 9)?

4
Explanation

Using the slope formula between two given points.

#13

Find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points (2, 3) and (6, -1).

x + y = 7
Explanation

Midpoint and perpendicular slope used to find the equation.

#14

Find the distance between the parallel lines 2x - 3y + 4 = 0 and 2x - 3y - 7 = 0.

5
Explanation

Perpendicular distance between the lines is found using the formula.

#15

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line passing through the points (-2, 4) and (3, -5)?

-2
Explanation

Negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

#16

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (-3, 2) and perpendicular to the line 4x + 3y = 6.

3x - 4y = 18
Explanation

Using slope and given point to determine the equation.

#17

What are the coordinates of the point which divides the line segment joining (-4, 5) and (6, -8) internally in the ratio 3:1?

(2, -2)
Explanation

Internal division formula applied to find the coordinates of the point.
