Lesson 21
Drawing on the Coordinate Plane
- Let’s draw on the coordinate plane.
21.1: Cat Pictures
Recreate this image in the applet by entering ordered pairs.

If you have time, consider adding more details to your image such as whiskers, the inside of the ears, a bow, or a body.
Add these statements to the list of things being graphed.
\(x > 6\)
\(y > 5\)
\(x < -4\)
\(y < -6\)
Describe the result. Why do you think that happened?
21.2: Design Your Own Image
Create an image of your own design by listing the ordered pairs in the applet. You could draw a different animal, a vehicle, a building, or something else. Make sure your image includes at least 4 points in each quadrant of the coordinate plane.
