Then José connected the points in the order in which they were given. He connected the last point to the first point.

On Four-Quadrant Grid Paper, fill the following shape orders. Make sure you connect the points in order. Connect the last dot to the first dot. Then describe the shape you made.

  1. (1, 2), (3, 5), (7, 1)
  2. (−2, −3), (−2, 2), (5, 4), (5, −1)
  3. (−1, 6), (4, 3), (1, −3), (−6, −2), (−5, 3)
  4. (−2, −2), (−2, 2), (2, 2), (2, −2)
  1. Name the shape you drew in Questions 1–4.

José was given the title of Master Shape Maker. José gets many difficult projects. See if you can make the shape for this problem and become José's assistant. Use a sheet of Half-Centimeter Grid Paper as the first quadrant. Place (0, 0) in the lower left corner and label the axes.

    1. (7, 11), (7, 18), (8, 20), (8, 23), (10, 26), (14, 23), (20, 22), (23, 24), (24, 22), (24, 19), (25, 18), (25, 14), (24, 9), (22, 7), (12, 7)

Draw these decorations on the shape you made in Question 6A.

  1. Decoration 1: (10, 20), (12, 18), (14, 20)
  2. Decoration 2: (17, 20), (19, 19), (21, 20)
  3. Decoration 3: (16, 17), (15, 16), (16, 14)
  1. Draw a shape on Half-Centimeter Grid Paper whose vertices are ordered pairs. Label the points with the ordered pairs. Then write down the ordered pairs in order on another sheet of paper. Give the coordinates to a friend and see if he or she can graph your shape.
