Curated OER
Shortest Distance Between Points and Lines
Learners use technology to determine the shortest between two points in a plane. They are required to support their analytic explanations with visual illustrations.
Curated OER
Math 212: Planes
In this plane worksheet, students find the midpoint of a line, determine points on a plane, and use the cross product to find an equation with given parameters. This two-page worksheet contains three problems.
Curated OER
Distance Formula
In this online math worksheet, students practice their ability to calculate the distance between two points by utilizing the distance formula. Students can check their answers, and there are "hints" given should they get stuck.
