Graphs: Year 9 – planning tool

This planning resource for Year 9 is for the topic of Graphs. Students work with points, straight lines and line segments on the Cartesian plane, and use the coordinates of points to apply the formulas for calculating the gradient, midpoint and length of a line segment (distance between two points). They use digital tools to represent these points, lines and line segments on the Cartesian plane, explore how they change as the points are varied, and apply them to visually model a range of practical situations and solve related problems.
