ACMMG143: Introduce the Cartesian coordinate system using all four quadrants
Learning intentions:
- Understand the concept of the Cartesian coordinate system and how to use it.
- Understand the properties of the four quadrants of the coordinate plane.
- Students can accurately introduce the Cartesian coordinate system and use it to plot points.
- Students can identify the properties of the four quadrants of the coordinate plane, including the signs of the coordinates and the location of the origin.
- Students can use appropriate strategies, such as using the x- and y-axes to determine the coordinates, to plot points on the coordinate plane.
- Students can use appropriate digital technologies, such as a graphing software or a geometry app, to plot points on the coordinate plane.
