Name __________________________
You will be creating a treasure map. Follow the instructions below to locate the treasure. Use the graph paper provided.
1. Plot S(-5, -9).
2. Plot T(1, -9).
3. ST is the bottom of your square. Draw the square upwards.
4. What are the coordinates of the upper left corner of your square? ___________
5. Label the point from step 4 “A”.
6. Plot B(-11, -3).
7. Connect A and B.
8. Find the midpoint of AB. Show your work below.
9. Label the midpoint “C”. This is the bottom point of the kite.
10. Plot D(-8, 4). This is the top point of the kite.
11. Plot E(-6, 2). This is the right point of the kite.
12. Connect DE and CE.
13. Finish creating the kite.
14. Starting at Point D, go a distance of 4 units up and label it point F.
15. Connect D and F.
16. Find the midpoint of FD. Show your work below.
17. Label the midpoint “G”.
18. Plot H(-14, 6).
19. Connect G and H.
20. Create a rectangle using F, G, and H.
21. Plot J(6, 8). This is the top point of the rhombus.
22. Connect F and J.
23. Plot K(4, 6).
24. Connect J and K. This is the upper left side of the rhombus.
25. Create a rhombus using JK as one side of the rhombus. (Hint- you need a point below J and a point to the right of K.)
26. Label the bottom point of the rhombus “L”.
27. Plot M(4, 2).
28. Connect L and M.
29. Plot N(7, 2).
30. Plot Q(3, -2).
31. Plot P(10, -2).
32. Connect MNPQ to make a trapezoid.
33. How did you do? The treasure is in the trapezoid at point (7, -1). Plot this point and label it point Z.
34. Find the distance from the treasure to your starting point S. Show your work below.
