Find the position of pairs of integers and other rational numbers on the coordinate plane.
Find the position of pairs of integers and other rational numbers on the coordinate plane.
UP:MA19.6.11
Vocabulary
- Coordinate plane
- Quadrants
- Coordinate values
- ordered pairs
- x axis
- y axis
- Reflection
Knowledge
Students know:
- Strategies for creating coordinate graphs.
- Strategies for finding vertical and horizontal distance on coordinate graphs.
Skills
Students are able to:
- Graph points corresponding to ordered pairs,
- Represent real-world and mathematical problems on a coordinate plane.
- Interpret coordinate values of points in the context of real-world/mathematical situations.
- Determine lengths of line segments on a coordinate plane when the line segment joins points with the same first coordinate (vertical distance) or the same second coordinate (horizontal distance).
Understanding
Students understand that:
- A graph can be used to illustrate mathematical situations and relationships. These representations help in conceptualizing ideas and in solving problems,
- Distances on lines parallel to the axes on a coordinate plane are the same as the related distance on the axis (number line).
