Mastering Coordinate Grids: Plotting & Identifying Points

1. A treasure map shows a treasure located at point (3, 4). Plot this point on a grid. Where is the treasure located?

• The treasure is located at point (1, 1).

• The treasure is located at point (2, 3).

• The treasure is located at point (4, 5).

• The treasure is located at point (3, 4).

2. If you plot the points (2, 5) and (2, 1) on a grid, what do you notice about their positions?

• The points are diagonally aligned.

• The points are horizontally aligned.

• The points are at the same y-coordinate.

• The points are vertically aligned.

3. A park is designed with a playground at (1, 2) and a picnic area at (4, 5). What are the coordinates of the playground?

• (0, 0)

• (1, 2)

• (4, 5)

• (2, 1)

4. You have a coordinate grid where the school is at (0, 0) and the library is at (5, 3). Plot both points. How far is the library from the school?

• 4.5

• 7.2

• 6.0

• 5.83

5. A farmer has a field represented on a grid. The corn is planted at (6, 2) and the tomatoes at (6, 5). What do you notice about these points?

• The corn and tomatoes are planted in the same vertical line.

• The corn and tomatoes are at the same point on the grid.

• The corn is planted to the left of the tomatoes.

• The corn and tomatoes are planted in the same horizontal line.

6. If you move from point (3, 3) to (3, 6) on a grid, how many units do you move vertically?

• 4 units

• 5 units

• 3 units

• 2 units

7. A delivery truck starts at (0, 0) and makes a delivery at (4, 4). Plot both points. What direction did the truck travel?

• Southwest

• Northeast

• Northwest

• Southeast

8. The art gallery is located at (2, 3) and the museum at (5, 3). What do you notice about their y-coordinates?

• The y-coordinates are both greater than 5.

• The y-coordinates are different.

• The y-coordinates are equal.

• The y-coordinates are both negative.

9. If a point is located at (7, 1), what is the x-coordinate of this point?

• 1

• 7

• 7.5

• 10

10. A game board has a starting point at (0, 0) and an endpoint at (8, 8). Plot these points. What is the distance between the start and end points?

• 8

• 10

• 8√2

• 16
