Mapping a Site Using a Coordinate Plane

A quadrilateral is drawn on the coordinate plane, and eighth grade geometers find the length of each side and the diagonals by applying the Pythagorean theorem. 

Keep young mathematicians on point with this coordinate plane worksheet. From plotting ordered pairs to identifying the quadrant and coordinates of specific points, this resource covers all the basic skills students need to have when...

You sank my battleship! The iconic cry of the time-honored game, Battleship will be heard in classrooms with this learning game that requires only grid paper, pencils, and an introductory knowledge of the first quadrant of the coordinate...

Use a kinesthetic activity to elucidate ordered pairs and coordinate planes. Arrange desks in a square array and distribute to learners cards with ordered pairs based on the locations of their seats. By having various groups of learners...

Class members investigate rectangles on the coordinate plane. They determine the length of line segments in the coordinate plane with the same x-coordinate or same y-coordinate and then solve geometric problems involving perimeter and...

Learners  solve 12 problems where they are given points on a coordinate plane and write the coordinates for each point. They answer 12 problems where they are given ordered pairs and must identify the point at each pair. Pupils graph two...

Seven activities make up a collection of supplemental materials to reinforce graphing on a coordinate plane. Worksheet objectives include plotting coordinates within single and four quadrants, measuring straight and diagonal lines, and...

Sal's goal in this video is to "familiarize ourselves with the x, y-coordinate plane." If your pupils have blank expressions when you present them with graphing problems, this video will be a great help to clear up the basics.

Get to the point of planes using an informative video lesson. A thorough lesson describes the components of the coordinate plane including the axes, quadrants, and origin. The facilitator then teaches the process of plotting and...

The world is full of different locations to visit. Have your learners calculate the distance between different locations by using the absolute value of two points. Introduce counting distance for lower-level learners first. Video is last...
