Let's solve the problem step by step.

Task 1: Find and write down the coordinates of the rocket
We are given a rocket-shaped figure on a coordinate grid. We need to find the coordinates of each labeled point: A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
We'll use the standard format for coordinates:
(x, y), where:
-
x is the horizontal position (left/right),
-
y is the vertical position (up/down).
Let’s locate each point one by one:
####
Point A
- It's at x = 3, y = 4
- So,
A (3, 4)
####
Point B
- It's at x = 3, y = 2
- So,
B (3, 2)
####
Point C
- It's at x = -1, y = -2
- So,
C (-1, -2)
####
Point D
- It's at x = -1, y = -4
- So,
D (-1, -4)
####
Point E
- It's at x = -5, y = 0
- So,
E (-5, 0)
####
Point F
- It's at x = -3, y = 0
- So,
F (-3, 0)
####
Point G
- It's at x = 1, y = 4
- So,
G (1, 4)

✔ Final Answers for Task 1:
```
A (3, 4)
B (3, 2)
C (-1, -2)
D (-1, -4)
E (-5, 0)
F (-3, 0)
G (1, 4)
```

Task 2: Draw your own rocket and write down the coordinates
This part is open-ended. You can create any rocket shape using the grid below. Here’s an example of how you might do it:
#### Example Rocket Design:
Let’s say we draw a simple rocket with points:
- P1 (0, 5) – top tip
- P2 (1, 3)
- P3 (1, 1)
- P4 (0, -1)
- P5 (-1, 1)
- P6 (-1, 3)
Then connect them to form a rocket shape.
You would then list:
```
P1 (0, 5)
P2 (1, 3)
P3 (1, 1)
P4 (0, -1)
P5 (-1, 1)
P6 (-1, 3)
```
> 💡
Note: Since this is a creative task, there is no single correct answer. Just make sure your shape looks like a rocket and label all vertices clearly.
