Coordinate Plane Battleship

Battleship is fun. We are in math class so we will use a coordinate plane grid for our boats. Place the points of the boat on the correct coordinates.

a

(4,-3)

(4,-4)

(2,3)

(-1,-3)

(-3,0)

(4,-2)

(-3,1)

(2,2)

(2,1)

(-2,-3)

What is the coordinate of where to sink the boat?

a

(2,-2)

(2,2)

(3, 2)

(1, 1)

Sink the boat!!! What coordinate sinks the boat?

d

(3, -3)

(-3, 0)

(-3, -2)

(3, 2)

Label the point where you sink the boat.

d

(0, 3)

(3, 0)

(-3, -1)

(0, 2)

Label the axis on the graph:

a

( 7, -5 )

( 2, 5 )

( -4, -5 )

( -5, 7 )

( 0, -2 )

( -2, 0 )

( 5, 2 )

Plot the following points:

1. 1. (0 , 4)

2. 2. (8 , 0)

3. 3. (7 , 5)

Label all the points that will hit a boat.

In the game Battleship you would place your boats on a grid.

NOT DIAGONAL

Draw a boat that covers 2 squares

Draw two boats that cover 3 squares

Draw a boat that covers 4 squares

Draw a boat that covers 5 squares

Each player has a HIDDEN grid of boats. You launch a torpedo at your partners boat by calling out a coordinate spot. Notice in this example that the opponent had called out A6 and missed.

What spot should your opponent call out in order to sink a boat?

(Pink spot 3 in a row)

• B2

• D8

• E10

• I7

Place a boat on the chart.

Plot the point (2, -4), (3, -4), and (4, -4)

Remember this is in the form of (x, y)

You first go left to right on the x axis

Then go UP or DOWN
