Currently in math now we are working on plotting and identifying points on a Cartesian plane in the first quadrant only. One point of emphasis is that the first coordinate is always moving to the right, and the second coordinate is always moving up in the quadrant. Here is some terminology translated:
Cartesian plane = Plan cartésien
Origin = Origine (0,0)
Horizontal axis = L'axe horizontal
Vertical axis = L'axe vertical
Coordinate = Coordonnéé
Ordered pair = Paire ordonnéé (ex. (3,8)
Here is the homework for tonight:
1. Match each ordered pair with the correct letter from the Cartesian plane.
2. Draw a Cartesian plane and label the axes. Plot the ordered pairs with their letter.
3. Same as question #2
4. Write out the ordered pair for each letter that represents an attraction at the Vancouver aquarium.
