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).
