Connect the Dots - Plotting Coordinate Points
You're going to do a connect the dots picture today! Follow the directions to plot points and then connect them into polygons of a certain color. You should have a recognizable picture in the end!
You can also find the directions linked in your agenda if you prefer having them open in another window.
1) Plot the following points in order
A (-3, 7) | B (-2, 2) | C (2, 2) | D (3, 7) | E (5, 5) | | |
F (5, 2) | G (4, -1) | H (0, -2) | I (-4, -1) | J (-5, 2) | K (-5, 5) |
Create your first polygon by connecting the points in order
Polygon(A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, A)
Then change the color of the polygon to yellow
2) Plot the following points in order
L (-6, 0) | M (-6, 6) | N (-5, 8) | O (-4, 9) | P (-1, 10) | |
Q (1, 10) | R (4, 9) | S (5, 8) | T (6, 6) | U (6, 0) | |
Create your first polygon by connecting the points in order
Polygon(A, B, C, D, E, F, G, U, T, S, R, Q, P, O, N, M, L, I, J, K, A)
Then change the color of the polygon to red
3) Plot the following points in order
V (-6, -2) | W (-4, -4) | Z (-2, -7) | A1 (2, -7) | |
B1 (4, -4) | C1 (6, -2) | D1 (3, -2) | E1 (-3, -2) | |
Create your third polygon by connecting the points in order
Polygon(L, I, E1, H, D1, G, U, C1, B1, A1, Z, W, V, L)
Then change the color of the polygon to yellow
4) Plot the following points in order
F1 (-3, -7) | G1 (-2, -9) | H1 (2, -9) |
I1 (3, -7) | J1 (2, -8) | K1 (-2, -8) |
Create the following polygons by connecting the points in order
Polygon(Z, K1, J1, A1, Z) Color this polygon red
Polygon(F1, G1, H1, I1, J1, K1, F1) Color this polygon yellow
5) Plot the following points in order
L1 (-5, -6) | M1 (-4, -8) | N1 (-2, -10) |
O1 (2, -10) | P1 (4, -8) | Q1 (5, -6) |
Create the following polygons by connecting the points in order
Polygon(V, W, Z, K1, F1, G1, H1, I1, J1, A1, B1, C1, Q1, P1, O1, N1, M1, L1) Color this polygon red
Polygon(I, E1, H) Color this polygon cyan
Polygon(H, D1, G) Color this polygon cyan
