Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.55 Plot a Constellation on a Coordinate Plane skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A map of the constellation Sky Bridge uses points A(1,2), B(1,7), C(6,7), D(6,4), and E(9,4). Which statement best describes the route when the points are connected in order?
AUp 5, right 5, down 3, right 3
BUp 3, right 5, down 5, right 3
CUp 5, right 3, down 3, right 5
DRight 5, up 5, down 3, right 3
Solution & Explanation:From A to B is up 5 units, from B to C is right 5 units, from C to D is down 3 units, and from D to E is right 3 units.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Use the star map in the image. Which pair of stars would form a horizontal segment 4 units long?
AB and C
BC and D
CA and D
DA and B
Solution & Explanation:A horizontal segment needs the same y-value. In the image, A(1,2) and B(5,2) share y = 2 and are 4 units apart.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A probe traces stars at (2,1), (2,6), (5,6), and (9,6). With 1 unit = 2 km in the model, how far does it travel?
Solution & Explanation:The path lengths are 5 units up, 3 units right, and 4 units right for 12 units total. At 2 km per unit, 12 x 2 = 24 km.
