Description
This high school Geometry activity utilizes real world applications of distance and midpoint formulas. Printable and digital versions of this activity are included, which is great for hybrid learning, distance learning, or in person!
Students will create an itinerary or use one of the 8 provided, pre-planned itineraries for a 5-day road trip around the United States! They will determine their distance driven each day and calculate the location of a "pit stop" halfway for each day (midpoint). They will then calculate the total miles driven, how long they spent driving, how many gallons of gas used, and how much money they will spend on gas.
