    Using origin of a coordinate plane
    I'm stuck on using origin of a coordinate plane to answer a question. I'm only given 4 blocks west and 6 blocks south for numbers. With this information I'm to find the coodinates and figure out how far away this is from the starting point. I feel like I need more numbers to do this. Help! :( Thank you

    Well Pharris, from 4 blocks west and 6 blocks south you can calculate the angle and the hypothenusa size.
    What you require is the size of one block length to convert the hypothenusa size into length.
    If you have that info, just post your solution to this question, to check it.
