Let's solve
Problem 1 from the worksheet:
"Write down the coordinates of each point of the face."
We are given a coordinate grid with a face drawn using labeled points (A through L), and we need to determine the coordinates of each point.

🔍 Step-by-step: How to read coordinates
Coordinates are written as
(x, y):
-
x is the horizontal position (left/right)
-
y is the vertical position (up/down)
We start at the origin (0, 0) and move:
- Right → positive x
- Left → negative x
- Up → positive y
- Down → negative y

Now, let’s find each point on the graph:
---
#### Point A:
- x = 2, y = 5 →
(2, 5)
#### Point B:
- x = 4, y = 4 →
(4, 4)
#### Point C:
- x = 3, y = 2 →
(3, 2)
#### Point D:
- x = 3, y = -1 →
(3, -1)
#### Point E:
- x = 1, y = -3 →
(1, -3)
#### Point F:
- x = -1, y = -3 →
(-1, -3)
#### Point G:
- x = -3, y = -1 →
(-3, -1)
#### Point H:
- x = -3, y = 2 →
(-3, 2)
#### Point I:
- x = -4, y = 4 →
(-4, 4)
#### Point J:
- x = -2, y = 5 →
(-2, 5)
#### Point K:
- x = -1, y = 4 →
(-1, 4)
#### Point L:
- x = 1, y = 4 →
(1, 4)

✔ Final Answer for Part 1:
| Point | Coordinates |
|-------|-------------|
| A | (2, 5) |
| B | (4, 4) |
| C | (3, 2) |
| D | (3, -1) |
| E | (1, -3) |
| F | (-1, -3) |
| G | (-3, -1) |
| H | (-3, 2) |
| I | (-4, 4) |
| J | (-2, 5) |
| K | (-1, 4) |
| L | (1, 4) |

🎨 Part 2: Draw Your Own Face
This part is creative! You're asked to:
1. Draw your own face on the blank grid below.
2. Label key points (A to N).
3. Write their coordinates.
Since this is a
student activity, there is no single correct answer — it depends on what you draw.
But here’s how you can approach it:
- Choose points to make eyes, nose, mouth, ears, etc.
- Make sure to label them clearly (A, B, C, ..., N).
- Then write down their coordinates based on where they are on the grid.
For example, if you draw:
- Eyes at (2, 4) and (-2, 4)
- Nose at (0, 1)
- Mouth at (0, -2)
Then fill in those coordinates accordingly.

✔ Summary
Part 1 Answer:
```
A (2, 5) G (-3, -1)
B (4, 4) H (-3, 2)
C (3, 2) I (-4, 4)
D (3, -1) J (-2, 5)
E (1, -3) K (-1, 4)
F (-1, -3) L (1, 4)
```
Part 2: Create your own face and record the coordinates — no unique solution.
