The horizontal distance is the straight-line distance between two points on a map without including any extra distance because of following the upward and downward slopes of hills and valleys.

What is the horizontal distance between called?
It is called the displacement in the horizontal direction.
When coordinates of two geographical points are known and we calculate the distance between them Is the calculated distance the horizontal distance or the actual distance?
The horizontal distance. Points of latitude and longitude can't account for elevation.
Can a distance versus time graph ever show a horizontal line?
if the speed is zero then the distance versus time line will be horizontal
What is the vertical distance from 9 to 135?
On a horizontal number line, the distance is 0!
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
What is the horizontal distance formula?
The answer depends on the context: If you have a distance vector of magnitude V, that is inclined at an angle q to the horizontal, then the horizontal distance is V*cos(q).
Is longitude horizontal?
Lines of longitude are vertical but they measure horizontal distance(In degrees,not kilometers or miles)between Greenwich Mean Time(GMT) and you so the lines are vertical,not horizontal. However,longitude measures horizontal distance,not vertical distance.
Is length horizontal or diagonal?
A good definition might be the measurement of the longest horizontal distance of an object (x). Width would be the shorter horizontal distance (y)

A road climbs 30 feet as you travel a horizontal distance of 500 feet. What is the best estimate of how much longer the road distance is than the horizontal distance?
1.079 ins
If you keep the velocity of projection constant and change the angle of projection from 75 to 45 what will happen to the horizontal distance the projectile travels?
The horizontal distance will be doubled.
What is the ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?
It is a measure of the average gradient or slope.
What is the vertical distance from 9 to 135?
On a horizontal number line, the distance is 0!
In a distance vs time graph if the line is perfectly horizontal what does that mean about the velocity of the object?
horizontal
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
