Finding Perimeter and Area Using Ordered Pairs

This video tutorial teaches how to find the perimeter and area of a shape using ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. It explains the coordinate plane's X and Y axes, how to identify ordered pairs, and how to calculate the length and width of a shape. The tutorial includes plotting points on the coordinate plane and verifying the dimensions. Finally, it demonstrates calculating the perimeter and area of a rectangle using these dimensions.

What is a common mistake when identifying coordinates on a plane?

• Confusing the X and Y axes

• Using only positive numbers

• Switching the order of coordinates

• Ignoring the negative numbers

How do you determine the width of a shape using ordered pairs?

• By adding the X coordinates

• By subtracting the Y coordinates

• By finding the difference between Y coordinates

• By multiplying the X and Y coordinates

What is the length of the shape formed by the ordered pairs 4 and -6?

• 5 units

• 10 units

• 6 units

• 4 units

What shape is formed when the ordered pairs are plotted on the coordinate plane?

• Triangle

• Circle

• Square

• Rectangle

How do you calculate the area of the rectangle formed by the ordered pairs?

• Add the length and width

• Multiply the length by the width

• Divide the length by the width

• Subtract the width from the length
