Mathematics Assignment: Cartesian Plane Activity

Objective:

To find the values of abscissae and ordinates of various points given on a Cartesian plane.

Observation Table:

Point Abscissa Ordinate Quadrant Coordinate

A 2 9 1st (2, 9)

B 5 7 1st (5, 7)

C 7 4 1st (7, 4)

D 7 -2 4th (7, -2)

E 6 -6 4th (6, -6)

F 3 -7 4th (3, -7)

G -2 5 2nd (-2, 5)

H -5 7 2nd (-5, 7)

I -7 4 2nd (-7, 4)

J -7 -2 3rd (-7, -2)

K -6 -6 3rd (-6, -6)

L -3 -7 3rd (-3, -7)

M 0 5 y-axis (0, 5)

N 0 0 Origin (0, 0)

O 5 0 x-axis (5, 0)

Learning Outcome:

1. To find the coordinates of a point, say A:

(a) Move 2 units to the right on the x-axis.

(b) Move 9 units up on the y-axis.

2. Observations about axis points:

(a) Any point on the x-axis has ordinate = 0.

(b) Any point on the y-axis has abscissa = 0.

(c) Coordinates of the Origin O: (0, 0)
