Lesson plan #2.6 - Using Coordinates to Solve Problems

Subject:MPM2D MATHEMATICS

Grade: 10

Lesson No: 2.6

Duration: 3 hours

Unit 2 - Analytic Geometry

Topic: 2.6 - Using Coordinates to Solve Problems

Overall Expectations (Directly from The Ontario Curriculum)

model and solve problems involving the intersection of two straight lines;

solve problems using analytic geometry involving properties of lines and line segments; verify geometric properties of triangles and quadrilaterals, using analytic geometry

Specific Expectations (Directly from The Ontario Curriculum)

solve problems involving the slope, length, and midpoint of a line segment (e.g., determine the equation of the right bisector of a line segment, given the coordinates of the endpoints; determine the distance from a given point to a line whose equation is given, and verify using dynamic geometry software).

Learning Goals
