To solve this coordinate picture puzzle, we need to plot each set of points on the grid and connect them in order. The grid has an x-axis (horizontal) from 1 to 20 and a y-axis (vertical) from 1 to 20. Each line is made by connecting the given coordinates in sequence.
Let’s go step by step for each line:
---
Line 1: (17,0), (17,1), (18,2), (17,3), (18,4), (19,4), (20,3)
→ Start at bottom right near x=17, y=0. Go up to (17,1), then diagonally to (18,2), back to (17,3), then to (18,4), (19,4), and end at (20,3). This looks like part of a shape’s edge — maybe a tail or wing.
Line 2: (8,4), (6,4), (8,9)
→ From (8,4) left to (6,4), then up to (8,9). Forms a small triangle or V-shape.
Line 3: (20,6), (19,7), (17,7), (16,6), (16,5), (17,4), (16,3), (16,2), (15,1), (13,1), (12,2), (12,4)
→ Starts at far right (20,6), moves left and down, then curves around to (12,4). This might be the main body or head outline.
Line 4: (0,6), (2,8), (3,8), (4,7), (3,6), (4,5), (4,3), (3,2), (4,1), (6,2), (7,1), (8,2), (8,4)
→ Starts at left edge (0,6), goes up to (2,8), then down and right, ending at (8,4). Likely forms the left side of the figure.
Line 5: (12,4), (10,0), (8,4)
→ Connects (12,4) to (10,0) to (8,4) — forms a downward-pointing triangle or beak/chin.
Line 6: (9,10), (11,10), (11,11), (9,11), (9,12), (11,12)
→ Makes a rectangle or square shape near center-top.
Line 7: (18,19), (16,18), (15,17), (15,15), (16,14), (18,13), (17,15), (17,17), (18,19)
→ Starts high right, loops around — possibly a hat, ear, or decorative top.
Line 8: (11,15), (11,13), (9,13), (9,15)
→ Small rectangle or window-like shape.
Line 9: (1,5), (2,5), (3,4), (2,3), (1,2), (2,1), (2,0)
→ Left-side zigzag — maybe a leg or tail.
Line 10: (12,9), (14,4), (12,4)
→ Triangle pointing down from (12,9) to (14,4) to (12,4).
Line 11: (11,7), (11,8), (10,9), (9,8), (9,7)
→ Small diamond or eye shape.
Line 12: (9,18), (11,18)
→ Short horizontal line near top.
Line 13: (10,20), (12,16), (12,4), (8,4), (8,16), (10,20)
→ Big loop from top center down to (12,4), across to (8,4), up to (8,16), back to (10,20). Likely the main body or torso.
Line 14: (9,4), (10,1), (11,4)
→ Inverted V under the body — legs or feet.
Line 15: (8,16), (12,16)
→ Horizontal line across upper body.
Line 16: (11,8), (9,8)
→ Short horizontal line — maybe arms or wings.

When you plot all these lines together, they form a recognizable cartoon character — specifically,
a penguin.
The lines create:
- A round body (Lines 3, 13)
- A head with beak (Lines 4, 5, 10)
- Eyes (Line 11)
- Wings/arms (Lines 6, 8, 16)
- Feet (Line 14)
- Hat or tuft on head (Line 7)
- Tail or back (Line 1)
This is a classic “coordinate graphing” activity where plotting points reveals a hidden image.
Final Answer:
penguin
