• Inches, centimeters, feet, meters, etc.
• If a coordinate system is used on a line, then ALGEBRA comes into play.
• Just use a ruler. Measurements are arbitrary because the units of measurements are arbitrary.

Calculation of DistanceUsing Coordinates

You could simply count the blocks.
The answer is 2.
Calculation of Distance Using Coordinates

Counting blocks would be time consuming.
The answer is 30.
You could simply subtract.
Subtraction means the difference between numbers.
Calculation of Distance Using Coordinates
-8 33
The answer is 41.
You could simply subtract.
33 – (-8) = 33 + 8 = 41
Note that negative numbers requires using algebra.
-8 -5You could simply subtract.
-5 – (-8) = -5 + 8 = 3
However if we subtract the numbers in reverse, then...
-8 – (-5) = -8 + 5 = - 3
Therefore to avoid negative numbers, we take the absolute value of the differences.

You subtract the coordinates then take the absolute value of the difference.

Ruler Postulate• The points on a line can be paired up
with real numbers in such a way that any two points can have coordinates of 0 or 1.
• Once the coordinates have been chosen in this way, the distance between the any two points is the absolute value of the difference of their coordinates.
The measuring scale is arbitrary.
A B
If M is on the segment and
MB = 4.01 cmMA = 4.01 cm
MA B
ABM is a midpoint of
AM MBIt is necessary for both conditions. Let’s see why?
D, E, and F
Are equidistant from both A and B
But they are NOT midpoints.
m FG = 10.24 cm
m FA = 10.24 cmDB = 4.79 cm
AD = 4.79 cm

AB + BC = AC
Note:Between means that A, B, and C are collinear.
B must be on the segment AC.

Summary 3
The letters are the names of the points.
The numbers are the coordinates that indicate the relative position of each point.
Summary 4
The ruler postulate allows us to…
1. Build number lines at any scale.
2. Compute distance by taking the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates.
Summary 5The segment addition postulate allows us to conclude…
The distance on a line is the sum of its parts.
