📐 Finding Distance with the Pythagorean Theorem

The Big Idea

1
Connect the two points and draw a right triangle. The straight-line distance is the hypotenuse (c).
legs a and b run along the grid lines
2
Count the legs: a = how far across, b = how far up or down.
3
Use a² + b² = c², then take the square root to find c.
3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25 → c = √25 = 5
