Plot the points.
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the lines joining corresponding points.
\n" ); document.write( "Use Pythagoras to get the distances; add them
\n" ); document.write( "Ex:
\n" ); document.write( "From (1,0) to (0,1)
\n" ); document.write( "d = sqrt(1^2 + 1^2) = sqrt2
\n" ); document.write( "From (2,0) to (0,2)
\n" ); document.write( "d = sqrt(2^2 + 2^2) = 2sqrt2
\n" ); document.write( "etc.
