Drawing Polygons on a Coordinate Plane March 30, 2016 Ms. Rodriguez
DO NOW: Find the area of the polygon 4 feet 3 feet 6 feet
FOCUS QUESTION How can we draw polygons on a coordinate plane?
What math knowledge do we need in order to draw polygons on a coordinate plane? Identify the axis How to find ordered pairs The properties of each quadrant The name of different shapes
Plot and connect the points: A (3,2) B (3,7) C (8,2).
Plot and connect the points: K (-7, -3) L (-3,-3) M (-7, -7) N (0, -7)
Plot and connect the following points A (4,6) B (8,6) C (10,2) D (2,2)
Independent Practice On your graph paper: Create a coordinate plane with the axis going from -10 to 10 On the next slide, you will receive coordinates for two different shapes.
SHAPE ONESHAPE TWO A (-9, 1) B (-9, -4) C (-6, -4) D (-6, 1) Q (2, 2) R (3, 3) S (4, 3) T (5, 2) What is the shape? What is the area?
