What is the distance between Kevin and James?
[list=1] [*]Plot the points on a coordinate system. [*]Draw lines to form a right triangle, using each point as the end of the hypotenuse. [*]Calculate the length of the vertical side, [i]a[/i], of the right triangle. [*]Calculate the length of the horizontal side, [i]b[/i], of the right triangle. [*]Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of the hypotenuse, [i]c[/i].
