A
Fluency & Practice
Answer all questions. Show your working clearly in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Read the coordinates of point A on the grid. What are the x and y values?
[2 marks]2.
Point B is located at (−2, 4). Plot this point on the grid and write down its coordinates.
[2 marks]3.
Identify the coordinate where the point C lies if it is 4 units to the right of the origin and 2 units down.
[2 marks]B
Problem Solving & Reasoning
Solve the following multi-step problems. Show all working.
1.
A point P is at (x, y). If moving 3 units right and 2 units up from P reaches point Q at (5, 7), what are the coordinates of P?
[3 marks]2.
A rectangle has vertices at (1, 2), (1, 6), (4, 2), and (4, 6). Identify the coordinate of the bottom-left corner.
[2 marks]C
Real-world Applications
Apply reading coordinates to real-world scenarios.
1.
A map shows a park with trees located at (7, 3), (10, 6), and (5, 8). Which tree is closest to the origin (0,0)?
[2 marks]2.
A delivery drone starts at (0, 0). It needs to deliver to the house at (9, 12). How far does the drone travel if it moves in a straight line from the start point to the house?
[3 marks]D
Challenge & Extension
Attempt the following advanced questions. Show detailed working.
1.
Construct a triangle with vertices at (2, 3), (6, 3), and (4, 7). Calculate the length of the base and the height of the triangle.
[4 marks]2.
Point R is at (x, y). It is equidistant from points S at (1, 2) and T at (5, 6). Find the possible coordinates of R.
[4 marks]E
Mixed Review & Error Analysis
Answer the following questions. Review your answers carefully.
1.
A student reads the point at (−3, 4) but writes down (3, −4). Identify the mistake and explain how to correct it.
[3 marks]2.
Plot the point (0, 0) and (4, −3). Which quadrant does each point lie in?
